Artillery

(Denmark)
Genre: Thrash Metal

Artillery are a Danish thrash metal band. They participated in the early development of the genre, and their highly energetic, riff-centric and often fast-paced music is similar in style to that of Voivod, Coroner, Megadeth, and Sabbat from the same era. After releasing three full-length albums and touring extensively throughout the 1980s and early 1990s, Artillery disbanded in 1991, but reunited seven years later, only to disband once again in 2000. However, they reformed again in 2007 and are still together today.

Vapor

(San Francisco)
Genre: Speed Metal, Thrash Metal

Vapor formerly known as VX36 is a powerhouse mix of thrash and speed metal mixed with a newer kind of vocal and drumming. Their musicianship, uniqueness, and dedication make for awesome riffs, crushing lyrics, and an energy explosive live show! Exploding onto the metal circuit in 2004. With the release of their first demo in 2005 entitled “DEMOlition” they started playing shows around the Bay Area and Sacramento gaining notice from many.

Embarking on their first Regional tour in 2007 doing a 14 day West Coast tour they began to conquer the North West. After returning from tour they went into the studio to record the first full length album titled “VX36.” Released in March of 2008, the CD flew off the shelf selling all available copies at the CD Release show! Planning tour after tour playing 500+ shows gaining numerous fans and recognition from 2008 till 2010 when the “Violence E.P.” was released, a short run CD that was the doorstep of the new album that was in the works.

In October of 2011 they took it to the next level with a 4 week United States tour supporting the upcoming release and full length album “A Violent Existence” (2012) recorded by engineer Zack Ohren. This release in just its short time has sold over 2000 and counting physical copies and over 5000 Digital downloads. It has been praised and said to be a favorite record thus far.

In 2014, they hit the road again to support Thrash legends Onslaught(UK) and Artillery(DK) on a 40 Day North American tour. Gaining more exposure and ready to conquer anything.

Following up in 2015 they did a 3 week U.S. tour supporting Artillery. In 2016 and 2019 they played Loud as Hell Festival supporting GoatWhore and some of Canadas biggest metal names.

Also a North American tour in July/August/September included support dates with Death Metal legends MASTER

After taking 2019 and 2020/2021 off to write and due to the global pandemic, Vapor is back and just completed a North American tour with Destruction, one of Germanys top 4 thrash bands, and the mighty all female thrash group Nervosa from Brazil, now with the name change Vapor is getting ready to release their much anticipated 3rd Album which is currently being recorded and set for an early 2023 release date.

Vapor is ready to take the world by storm. With their DIY attitude and determination there is no doubt Vapor will become a staple in the metal community.

Potential Threat

(San Francisco)
Genre: Thrash Metal
Potential Threat SF’s hard working, no-holds-barred attitude carries over to their intense live shows. Every ounce of grit and determination goes into their sets, framed by a simple mentality: that it is just as easy for a band to get the audience involved, engaged, and excited at a show, as it is to get pissed off and push an audience away. A band working as a unit on stage that’s enjoying themselves and can show it regardless of how long they’ve been playing or how many people are in the attendance will always be able to bring a crushing live performance–and that’s exactly what P.T.S.F delivers.
San Francisco Bay Area thrash bands have long been known for their in-your-face approach to music, and Potential Threat SF is no stranger to that tradition. Originally formed as a five-piece in 1986, P.T.S.F. has shared the stage with many of the world’s top thrash acts such as Testament, Slayer, Cro-Mags, Nuclear Assault, Death Angel, the list goes on…
