Some bands mellow with age. Deathraiser woke up after fifteen years and chose violence.

The Brazilian thrash maniacs behind Violent Aggression are finally back, and Forged In Hatred hits like they spent the downtime sharpening blades rather than writing riffs. This thing erupts with “Severe Atrocity,” a track that slams the door open with surgical riffing, maximum adrenaline, and that classic, combustible thrash energy that feels like late-’80s chaos bottled and detonated in 2026.

Deathraiser don’t ease up for a second. “Primitive Medicine” tears forward with white-knuckle speed and tight, mean songwriting. Tracks like “Corporation Parasite” don’t ask for interpretation—they demand a raised fist and a snapped neck. If you're someone who needs thrash explained to you, Deathraiser aren’t here to tutor. They’re here to scorch the earth.

From the venom-drenched churn of “Toxic Legacy” to the feral sprint of “One Step To The Grave,” Forged In Hatred stays locked in attack mode. No filler, no mercy. The closing track, “Dead Generation,” rides out on a tidal wave of riffs that feel carved straight from rage and resolve—one last reminder that this is a band built for the pit, not polite society.

With Deathraiser and Xtreem Music teaming up once again, Forged In Hatred arrives January 22 on CD, vinyl, cassette, and digital. Expect sweat, chaos, and that burning, cathartic rush that only true thrash delivers. This is the soundtrack for a world gone stupid—and a reminder that pure, undiluted aggression still has a pulse.
