Following the success of earlier singles in 2020, the New Yorker thrash-death metal act Mockcharge has defined their genre bridging style with the release of their debut studio album ‘Into The Valley Below’.

Mockcharge has found a fresh new sound with their mix between thrash & death metal, with tracks like ‘Destroy’, ‘Cannonball’ & ‘The Hexing’ Mockcharge has shown how they beefed up classic thrash sounds without getting too brutal to alienate the classic metalhead audience.

One of the singles released in the lead-up to the album’s release is ‘Marauder’ which encapsulates Mockcharge’s sound; fast heavy drums, grooving riffage & and the voice of a certain JD drinking angel. With a second album already underway for early 2022, ‘Into The Valley Below’ is a truly impressive debut album showcasing what Mockcharge has to offer, definitely an artist to keep an eye on over the next years!
