New Thrash Metal Supergroup NEFARIOUS Readies Debut Album Addicted To Power By Larry Petro, News Monkey Thursday, April 17, 2025 @ 9:59 AM
At the helm is Katon W. De Pena, the iconic voice of HIRAX, whose searing intensity and magnetic stage presence have long commanded crowds. On guitars, the twin-axe assault is nothing short of historic: Rick Hunolt (DIEHUMANE, Ex-EXODUS) and Doug Piercy (HEATHEN, ANVIL CHORUS, BLIND ILLUSION) deliver a relentless barrage of razor-sharp riffs and molten solos-honoring the legacy of thrash while pushing its boundaries into new territory.
About NEFARIOUS, Rick Hunolt comments:
"I'm so honored to be with this amazing group of dudes about to release some old-school thrash on you mofos, it's long overdue and I'm confident you guys will love it as much as we do you our metal brothers and sisters deserve it, see you on the road, let's fuckin go!!!"
Holding down the low end with massive groove and crushing weight is Tom Gears (BLIND ILLUSION, ANCIENT MARINER), providing the sonic anchor on bass for the band's explosive sound. Behind the kit, Will "Beastman" Carroll (DEATH ANGEL) unleashes a thunderous, precision-driven assault that hits with surgical brutality.
Katon De Pena adds:
"We're not a band. We are a Gang ready to Crush Skulls and Make Eardrums Bleed ... Necks will be sore ...!!"
