Vicious Attack is an extreme thrash metal band from the southside of Chicago, Illinois. Formed during the summer of 2007, the band immediately made their presence known playing shows through the city and suburbs. In January of 2008 Vicious Attack recorded a two track demo with Bob O’Connor of Creature Feature Studios and distributed it through the area. They continued to hammer out shows throughout Chicago-land, playing major venues like Reggie’s Rock Club and The Beat Kitchen, and continued to cement their reputation as a fierce, energetic live act. In March of 2009 Vicious Attack recorded their Blade of the Reaper EP. Engineered by Bob Pop and Mike at Gunpoint Studios and mastered by Joe Diliberto at Tonal Eclipse Studios, Blade of the Reaper showed the band progressing into a faster, more focused sound. Vicious Attack released their first full length album, Declaration Of War, on April 10th, 2021.

Vicious Attack has had the pleasure to share the stage with D.R.I., Evile, M.O.D., Havok, Hatchet, Jungle Rot, Degradation, Lair of the Minotaur, Merciless Death, Lazarus A.D., Bonded by Blood, Early Man, Exmortus, Diamond Plate and many others.

Centaurus creates sounds you’ve never heard before…a criminally tight band.” – The Chicago Music Player…. If metal is your religion, Centaurus is your instrumental church. Built on the foundation of guitar riffs, the pillars stretch to the sky and overtake all that lies ahead with inhumanly fast drum beats and an eclectic mix of music influences that almost sound like world music on minute, with traces of melodic metal as to listen to as pop, as well as tracks from tried and true heavy, progressive music.
