Nefarious is a Thrash Metal Supergroup to Watch, “One Nation Enslaved” Streaming Now

What do you get when you combine current and former members of Exodus, Heathen, Hirax, Blind Illusion, and Death Angel? Well, you get a supergroup named Nefarious and an album apparently coming out on July 18 titled Addicted To Power.

Comprised of vocalist Katon W. De Pena (Hirax), guitarists Rick Hunolt (Diehumane, ex-Exodus) and Doug Piercy (Heathen, Anvil Chorus, Blind Illusion), bassist Tom Gears (Blind Illusion, Ancient Mariner), and drummer Will “Beastman” Carroll (Death Angel), the band is a veritable who’s who of metal musicians.

With their album coming out in a couple months, the band released their first single, “One Nation Enslaved.” I’ll let you guess what that’s all about.

Speaking of the project as a whole, Hunolt said he was excited to play music with this group of guys.

“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!!!”
