Blackened is a Thrash Metal band formed in Mississauga, Ontario. They play old-school Thrash metal with a new-school vibe to it, appealing to both the older, as well as the newer fans of Thrash metal. Playing, fast, aggressive, in your face riffs, mixed with prominent bass-lines, fast, pounding drumming, and shredding solos, these 4 young thrashers have a great outline for what could prove to be the makings of another great Canadian Thrash band.
Blackened takes their influences from not only the old-school Thrash bands, such as Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Exodus, Overkill, and Nuclear Assualt to name a few, but also the new-school Thrash bands, such as Evile, Bonded By Blood, Warbringer, and Municipal Waste. It is clear they aren’t only influenced by Thrash but many other Metal sub-genres as well.
With the release of their 2008 Demo, Thrash or Die, Blackened proved that they can persevere through rough times and through line up changes, the acquisition of Matt Zirnhelt just before the release of their demo makes him the third official guitarist of the band. But Blackened still continues to push forward in the slowly growing metal scene of the GTA, playing countless shows at many venues, including the Opera House, and the Reverb, and playing along side many other great bands. On May 19th, 2008 Blackened would take a large step forward in their career by opening up for Joey Belladonna, former lead singer of Legendary Thrash band Anthrax.
Although they are still young, Blackened is looking to take the GTA’s metal scene by force, and will do whatever it takes to make a name for themselves in the metal scene in not only Canada, but around the world.

I'd like to be the sort of friend. That you have been to me. I'd like to also be the help. You've been always glad to be. I'd like to mean as much to you. Each minute of the day. As you have meant, dear friend of mine. You’ve been to me along the way. I'd like to do the big things. The splendid things for you. To brush the gray out from your skies. And leave them ever blue. I'd like to say the kindly things. That I so often heard. And feel that I rouse your soul. The way that mine you've stirred. I'd like to give you back the joy. That you have given me. Yet that were wishing you a need. I hope will never be. I'd like to make you feel. As rich as I, who travel on. Undaunted in the darkest hours. With you to lean upon. I'm wishing at this time. That I could but repay. A portion of the gladness. That you've strewn along my way. And if I had to make one wish this year. My only true wish would be. To be the sort of special friend. That you have been to me
