The Engines of Armageddon

About Me


'Soon to be flattening a town near you, this thrash power groove four piece take the balls-to-the-wall groove-crank of the hard rock underground and churn in a gallon of technical thrash riffery to create a homebrew that'll be clinging to your beard for years to come. Formed in 2005 by the brothers Bill and Marty Fisher, they saw numerous line-up changes before being joined by longtime childhood friend and metal comrade Si Graham on the bass. 'Man Mountain' Marty Fisher, widely known as one of the best shredders in the midlands took on rhythm and lead guitars, leaving Bill Fisher faced with the mighty task of lead vocals and drums. During the recording of their debut album Keane Beamish stepped in on rhythm guitar and rolling duties to thicken the crunch power of the engines' distinct yet undefinable stoner/doom/thrash/rock/groove/metal sound. Take heed listeners for you have been forewarned:
GET OUT OF THE WAY - THE ENGINES COMETH!'
