Featured Band: Deathonator

Originally forged in the East Midlands of England, now established in London, Dethonator are an exciting, four-piece Heavy Metal band. Starting out as young teenagers in the summer of 2002, Dethonator have honed their craft over a decade and a half of gigs and tours, demos and self releases, line-up and even name changes to become what they are today.

Having earned a formidable reputation for their hi-octane, exhilarating live performances and their anthemic songs, Dethonator’s fan base has been steadily growing in the capital. After 2013’s full length album, ‘Return To Damnation’ and 2014’s E.P, ‘Monuments to Dead Gods’, Dethonator now reissue their self titled first album, remixed and partially rerecorded by the current line-up. This eponymous release features many of their most popular songs, such as ‘Harbinger’, ‘Shadows’ and ‘In The Place of The Skull’; all regular staples in their live shows over the last few years. There is more yet to come in the immediate future, as the band will be entering the studio again to record their most ambitious album yet in 2017.

Dethonator gig regularly in the U.K. and have undertaken ventures into Europe to play short tours and festivals. In 2014, the band enjoyed a spot on the line-up at Germany’s Steel Meets Steel Festival. In their time on the road and around the venues, Dethonator have had the privilege of supporting artists such as Kobra and The Lotus, U.F.O., Tim ‘Ripper’ Owens, Sacred Mother Tongue, Onslaught, Orden Ogan, Blaze Bayley and Furyon, as well as many other reputable bands in the British underground.
