In the past few years, no emerging metal band has shaken up the international metal scene like ALIEN WEAPONRY. Since releasing their acclaimed Napalm Records debut Tū (2018), the New Zealanders’ kinetic presence and unique sound – combining elements of thrash and groove metal with lyrics in the native indigenous language, te reo Māori — has attracted throngs of fans and media supporters across the globe. Since the release of their second album, Tangaroa, the band has secured their status as one of the best international up and coming bands in the scene.
