Dust Bolt

Germany's Dust Bolt specialize in a ruthless and raw brand of thrash metal forged in the fires built by decibel-crushing countryman Kreator, Tankard, and Destruction. Emerging in the late 2000s, the band clawed its way to the fore of the European thrash scene with grit and resolution via neck-snapping efforts like Awake the Riot (2014), Trapped in Chaos (2019), and Sound & Fury (2024).
