Kings of Thrash

Ex-Megadeth members' group

Kings of Thrash are a powerhouse group formed by ex-Megadeth members, emerging from the United States in 2022. Bringing uncompromising energy and technical prowess to the stage, they are notable for their authentic connection to the roots of thrash metal, blending classic influences with fresh intensity. This dedication is reflected in their dynamic live renditions of iconic tracks such as “In My Darkest Hour (live)”, “Peace Sells... but Who's Buying (live)”, and “Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good (live)”, which have resonated strongly with live music aficionados.

Demonstrating their ongoing creative force, Kings of Thrash are set to release the new single "Lockdown" in May 2025, following the well-received live album “Best of the West - Live at the Whisky a Go Go,” which showcased their formidable stage presence and commitment to delivering high-calibre thrash concerts. Their catalogue offers a rare opportunity to hear both beloved classics and new material performed with a vigour that encapsulates the spirit of the genre.

For fans seeking electrifying gigs and authentic thrash experiences, Kings of Thrash will headline The Underworld in London in August 2026, leading a bill that includes support from XIII Doors and Wicked. This headline concert stands as a testament to their enduring appeal in the live music landscape.
