UK thrash metal band
Pest Control is a UK thrash metal band whose uncompromising crossover thrash sound is making a strong mark on the British live music scene. Hailing from the United Kingdom, Pest Control is celebrated for their high-energy performances and a discography that fuses visceral intensity with a distinct modern edge. The group has released a series of dynamic recordings, including the album "Don't Test the Pest" (2023), and the EP "Demo 2020", showcasing their tight musicianship and biting lyrical themes. Their catalogue also features standout singles such as "Infestation/Rat Race" and the frenetic "Time Bomb," set for release in August 2024, before their highly anticipated EP "Year of the Pest" arrives in October 2024.
Pest Control’s presence on renowned stages continues to grow, with recent appearances as a support act at Slam Dunk Festival in Hatfield and Leeds in May 2025. Sharing the bill with headliners KNOCKED LOOSE, they brought their potent brand of thrash to a discerning festival crowd alongside acts such as Malevolence, BURY TOMORROW, and Cancer Bats. Their growing reputation for delivering thunderous sets is matched by a line-up of tracks like "Extermination", "Good Grief", and the anthemic "Masquerade Party", which highlight their commitment to the genre’s roots while pushing its boundaries forward.
