The killer street thrash band known as REIGN was formed in 2013 in Chicago IL. Fusing death metal rhythms , progressive song layering, old school thrash riffs, and a punk attitude, REIGN is a sonic force to be reckoned with.

Throughout 2013 they built an underground following, gained a reputation for high energy shows and toured the midwest (without any recorded material!). In 2014 REIGN released a single, “New World Order”(DEMO). In early 2015 REIGN released their first self-produced EP “WMD” and began a small scale national tour, playing dates on the West Coast and Midwest.

Chicago-area metallers Phil Kurasz (of Lasting Vengeance), Andrew Whitfield (ex-Clad in Darkness, ex-Ghost of Mendea), Rob Whitworth (ex-Reprobation, ex-Blutige Nacht), and Josh Lloyd (ex-Deficit) formed Living Terror in late 2014 for one purpose: to carry the banner of true, old-school, aggressive metal throughout the Midwest.

Depremacy is a Melodic Black Thrash Metal band from Joliet, Illinois who has shared the stage with national acts such as Iced Earth, Warbringer, D.R.I., Kittie, Dirge Within, Diamond Plate, Firewind, Arsis, White Wizzard, Nightrage, Blackguard, Bonded by Blood, Abiotic, Vale of Pnath, and Enfold Darkness and has also played with out of state bands such as Mortifier, Vanlade, and Acidic Assault. They have played in both Illinois and Indiana stages and are expected to expand their horizon across America
