Waxen delivers skillfully played blackened thrash metal with strong true metal leanings and the undercurrent of black metal, drenched in Toby Knapp's trademark neo-classical shred-mastery! Waxen's debut album "Fumaroth" was released in 2006. Joining the Moribund Family in 2014 Waxen swiftly released a tetrarchy of internationally acclaimed black / thrash metal albums with "Agios Holokauston" (2014), "Weihung Auf Satan" (2016),"Terror Decree" (2018), "Blasphemer in Celestial Courts" (2019) and "Die Macht Von Hassen" (2023). These albums redefined technical black / thrash metal and credit Knapp with the invention an entirely new sub-genre "Shred-Black Metal"! Waxen's 7th album, "High Plaines Bloodlust" see's Toby Knapp bringing a much more melodic approach to their normal rough and raw Black Thrash Metal sound. The album is loaded with traditional thrash metal riffing that transforms into black metal shredding, then oscillates towards a neo-classical heavy metal solo or segments of brutal death metal tremolo. Toby Knapp's innovative and eclectic style and talent for writing real songs surpasses and sets him apart from all other shredders, and catipults Waxen to the forefront of the US Black Thrash Metal scene!Worship the Shredding Guitar Wizardry!PRESS:"Old school metal elements carried by the vile black metal thematic blend so well.

" -Decibel Magazine"Steps over a bunch of your favorite albums to the very front of your attention! Shocking. Crank it up!" -Metalsucks.

Another solid volley from it's well-stocked armory!" -http://rebelx. #org/"A unique album of it's kind, where Knapp manages with class and personality to combine two styles that are only apparently polar opposites. " -www. #metalhead. it "A standout album for fans of sophisticated, technical metal. An impressive album that demonstrates the versatility and virtuosity of Toby Knapp as a guitarist and songwriter.
