Exmortus is a thrash/technical death metal crossover band from Whittier, California. The band formed in 2002 and have been building a rabid following ever since. To date they have released three demos, two EPs, and three full length albums. The two phenomenal guitarists are doing their part to revive the art of shredding and are a must see for aficionados of the form.

“Kneel Before The Steel” is an anthemic staple of Exmortus’s live show. The song appears on the band’s second full length album Beyond The Fall of Time. Check it out below.

Athens, Ohio’s Skeletonwitch plays a brutal brand of blackened thrash metal. Their most recent album, 2013s Serpents Unleashed made its way into many a critics year end “best of” lists, landing at #3 on mine.

Now comes a gloriously gory new clip for the song “Unending, Everliving” from that album.
