Psychosomatic

From the depths of Sacramento California the crossover thrash metal, punk rock band PSYCHOSOMATIC was twisted into form in 1988. Spewing forth chaotic blasts of jackhammer style guitar picking on top of super tight speed drumming, ripping fast bass guitar lines and ferocious vocals, spitting out lyrical topics ranging from anti-establishment social issues to horror and insanity. The Sacto thrashers barrage listeners with fast, tight, punk style energy songs into the technical darkness of metal. Psychosomatic has carved their trench in the underground thrash metal world with several US tours, leaving blistering eardrums in their wake. Psychosomatic has four full length releases to date including 2006′s Unquenchable Thirst and 2010’s Another Disease. Along with two video cuts “Another Disease” and “Everybody Hates Me” featuring guest singer Nickie Sickie from Verbal Abuse. Psychosomatic has several tracks on various compilations such as, Thrasher Magazine’s Skate Rock vol. 9. Cheap Ass Music vol. 1 on Cheap Ass Records. Mechanized Death: A Tribute To The Accused on Transparent Records. Shred or be Shredded on Buried in Hell Records. And Econo-Comp on RecordsOnTap. Psychosomatic has played various fests including San Francisco’s Tidal Wave as support for Exodus, Hirax & Attitude Adjustment, and New Jersey Death Fest 4. For their last album “Another Disease” Psychosomatic toured the U.S. four times in two years, two weeks San Diego to Seattle tour with Australia’s Vicious Circle, two weeks west coast tour with New Jersey’s Hammer Fight, also playing several shows between tours. Currently Psychosomatic has just finished recording their latest full length album, stay posted here or visit us at www.officialpsychosomatic.com. “Sacramento’s Psychosomatic are a unique beast of a band. They play brutal, tight, greased-lightning thrash that also has an underlined punk snottiness to it… One second they’ll lay down a surf beat, then the next, a blast beat. Seemingly, Psychosomatic is a skate punk band that saw one too many “No Skateboarding” signs and finally snapped…they started listening to Slayer on 45 RPM… then tried to play even faster.” – Aris Wales, The Portland Mercury American Thrash Metal Band from Sacramento CA
