Bolt Thrower

We recently tracked down the setlists from 20 big hard rock and metal bands' final shows to look back at how they went out.

It's never too early — or too late — to make something great.

We love Joe Satriani and Tony Iommi too, but let's hear it for some other guitarists for once.

A banner year for the underground and one where metal's biggest album ever was released.

One year after the death of drummer Martin ‘Kiddie’ Kearns, Bolt Thrower have revealed they will not continue on without Kearns behind the throne.

Martin Kearns put in a total of 18 years with the British death metal legends, first from 1994-1997 and once again from 2000 until his death.

Bolt Thrower is arguably the heaviest band in the world, in no small part to bassist and near-founding member Jo Bench. Perhaps the first woman to come on to the extreme metal scene, she has been laying down the thunder with the English death metal titans for 26 years.
