Emerging from the UK metal underground in the latter part of the ‘80s after forming in 1984 under the moniker Sweet Vengeance, and re-christened Xentrix in 1988, the band quickly established themselves in the burgeoning Thrash Metal underground with their debut LP ‘Shattered Existence’, having been signed to Roadrunner Records.
Featuring fan favourites like ‘The Bitter End’ and ‘Kept In The Dark’, the album cemented the band’s position at the top of the UK Thrash scene alongside the likes of Sabbat, Onslaught and Acid Reign.
