Indestructible Noise Command are ready to Set It Off with ‘Heaven Sent… Hellbound’

The Thrash Metal scene has been a big part of Heavy Music since its inception in the early 80's. After losing some attention due to new musical tendencies that prevailed within the scene, the genre has been fortified and as a result Thrash Metal today is stronger than ever. This was proven when the "Big 4" decided that it was time to join forces to demonstrate to the world that it was time to once again infect them with a vulgar display of power! The unity displayed by the "Big 4" inspired many bands like International Noise Command (I.N.C.) to make a strong comeback in order to keep the Thrash Metal flag flying high.

When I.N.C. came out in the mid 80's, they grabbed the West Coast scene by storm since at the time it was unheard of for a band from Connecticut, a state known for Hardcore music, to have a young group of kids demolishing the Thrash Metal scene. The brainchild behind I.N.C. is Erik Barath, who is the founder and the lead guitarist of I.N.C. When the the band came out in the mid 80s they had a lot of potential, to the point that bands of the caliber of Pantera were opening for them. So what happened? We had the chance to interview Erik and this is what he had to say:

"We broke up in 1990, after we put out two records: "Razorback" (1987) and "The Visitor: (1988). Everything was going pretty well... and long story short, a lot of bad things happened. The band started fighting sinde we were young and immature. We were all teenagers basically. We broke up and there was really nothing said about it for two decades." - Erik Barath

Here are some facts about I.N.C:
