Biografie

Methedras is a killing thrash death metal machine formed in 1996 with the purpose to mix the style of thrash metal of the early 80's with the blind rage of a more actual technical death metal. During the first years, several demo & promo CD's were released, leading to good and appreciated reviews in the whole Italian territory. After these releases, the band main interest focused on promotion through frequent live activity, leading to directly open for bands like Entombed, Tankard, Carnal Forge, Dismember, Hatesphere and Onslaught. 2004 saw the release of the first full-length album, Recursive. The album summed up the experience the band reached during the first ten years of activity, directing into the songs featured a huge amount of energy and rage, fed by a substantial dose of bay-area thrash metal, rendered in a more cynical and grimmer way, leading the band to sign with the Belgian Hardebaran Management an exclusive distribution & promotion contract for the whole Europe. In 2006, Methedras released the second chapter, named The Worst Within, an album much more technical, aggressive and death-oriented rather than the predecessor, full of multimedia content (live videos from 2004 Wacken performance plus a making-of video), presented in advance on the march issue of Metal Maniac, one among the most important Italian magazines, with a free promo CD attachment for the readers. Recently Methedras 2004 appearance at the renowned German Wacken Open Air (where the band set at the second place within an international contest), 2005 performance at the Slovenian Metal Camp, 2006 and 2008 opening for the Italian leading Evolution Festival, as well as a 2008 UK & Ireland tour supporting Swedish death metal master Dismember, and a couple of 2008 Italian tours with the surprising thrash-corers Hatesphere and the mighty British thrashers Onslaught, further enhanced the band international publicity. In the middle of 2008, Methedras signed with Punishment 18 Records, a solid Italian indie label interested in the most surprising and powerful undeground bands, under which Methedras released at the end of February 2009 the new third album, named Katarsis, in the purposes completely different from all the previous releases, expecting to bring the band name as far as possible. Few months after this new release, the band toured the whole East Europe directly supporting the German thrash-master forefathers, the legendary Destruction, in such unusual countries like Austria, Slovacchia, Romania, Bulgaria, Grecia and Serbia. In June of the same year, Methedras played also at the Italian Hellbrigade Fest, where the headlining acts were the American thrash-legends Whiplash, for the first time appearing in Italy, and the thrash-power band Artillery from Denmark.
