North Carolina’s Wretched use an ever-expanding music vocabulary to stretch the bounds of death and thrash metal.
Their debut for Victory Records, THE EXODUS OF AUTONOMY, is a study in intricate metal songcraft, each song planned-out and/or structured for maximum adventure.
Reportedly beginning as a jam band in 2005, Wretched couldn’t be further from that sound on songs like the swarming “Fetal Consumption” and the towering, chops-displaying “Deplorable Miscalculations.” This is a band with the skills and ambition to make their big ideas come to life.
