About Me


Put an image at the top of your profile!
Vicious' Thrash Metal reign started in 2006 by friends Mike and Pat and their mutual love of Old school Thrash and Heavy Metal. Ray was added to the line-up in spring 2007 on bass and they began crafting their first early songs.
After playing a couple shows, creating a small fan base, and the addition of Ryan on Lead Guitar, Vicious went to Studio A in Crystal Lake to record their first demo entitled "Civil Disorder" that would contain 3 of the band's polished songs, "Damnation," Poltergeist," and "Damaged Cause." Sadly, due to personal issues not related to the band, Ray shorty left Vicious. Ben soon filled in the Bass spot and the Band continued to play more shows at the local Roller Rink in Mchenry.
After Building a considerable local fan base and having written upwards of 12 original songs. Vicious finally decided it was time to record a proper full length album and release it by themselves. With the help of DB at BOTA Studios in Lake in the Hills, "Cursed" was recorded in summer 2008, containing 11 ripping Thrash tunes. The Album will be Released sometime in the fall of 2008.
Vicious has quite a different sound then most of the Thrash out today. They strive to maintain an oldschool mentality, But with an updated sound. Bringing all their influences into one hell of a noise.
