Loudblast
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Loudblast is a musical band that was among thrash metal and death metal pionneers in France and one of the most important French metal band in the 1990’s, beside rivals considered Massacra.
The band was born in 1986 in the northern city of Lille. Its first recording is a split CD with the Nice based band Agressor. Through its 8 albums, its music, that was influenced by American thrash metal standards, evolved quickly to find its own personality.
After a short break in 1999 with an official announcement of split, a support concert to Chuck Schuldiner’s Death was the opportunity to join together.
