Next show: New York City, Fri 16 Oct
A high-energy, underground speed metal act.
TRAUMA is highly revered by those in the know as an important evolutionary entity in the intersection of traditional heavy metal, the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, and the more melodically minded classic rock influenced bands on the Sunset Strip. This is one of the first thrash metal bands – responsible for the much sought after classic ‘80s album, 'Scratch and Scream' in 1984 (reissued in 2013) featuring killer cuts like “The Day All Hell Broke Loose” and “Lay Low.” Three decades passed before the reconfigured band reemerged in support of a re-mastered edition of their debut and delivered ‘Rapture and Wrath’ in 2015, ‘As the World Dies’ in 2018, and ‘Awakening’ in 2022. Soaring melodies and fierce riffs collide in songs that are equal parts sharp, fierce, grandiose, and theatrical. Since their formation, they’ve assembled the strongest elements of seemingly disparate strains of metal, with passion and proficiency. 2023 brings Trauma on the road for 31 show as the opening band for Queensryche and their Digital Noise Alliance Tour. Trauma is Steve Robello (Guitar), Michael Spencer (Bass), Brian Allen (Vocals), Casey Trask (Guitar), and Kris Gustofson (Drums) Join the band on these platforms: https://www.traumametal.com https://www.facebook.com/TraumaThrash/ https://twitter.com/Trauma_TheBand https://www.instagram.com/traumametal/
