Quintessence of the most direct-in-your-face thrash-death style, Methedras sets among the leading Italian metal bands, a real war-machine which has been able to release few demos and six full-lenght albums during its activity, as well as have performed hundreds of tours and festivals worldwide (Wacken Open Air, Metal Camp), many of them in support of big names of the international metal scene (Slayer, Anthrax, Testament, Overkill, Sepultura, Kreator, Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse, Exodus, Destruction, Dismember, Sodom), without ever losing an ounce of anger and energy.
Combo formed originally near Milan in 1996 with a double-guitar line-up, the band has changed over the years various members preferring in the end a solid line-up with only one guitar, arriving to a proper own style with no compromise: a sort of derived bay-area thrash metal spiced with more typical Nordic death metal influences and a modern approach thanking synth and orchestral grafts which give the sound an even more melodic rock aura.
Previously under the flag of labels like the Italian Punishment 18, the American Pavement Entertainment and the German Massacre Records, with the last album “Human Deception” released in June 2023, the band decided to self-produce founding Methedras Recording and working with the renowned Studio Fredman in Sweden under the wise guide of the world icon Fredrik Nordström (At the Gates, Dimmu Borgir, Arch Enemy, Soilwork, Dark Tranquillity, In Flames, Bring Me the Horizon, Opeth).
The single “Psychotic” is included in the album “Human Deception”.
