Throwe, a new hardcore band hailing from Copenhagen, Denmark, emerged three years ago from the remnants of Justinhate, a metal band. Their aim was to craft a more intense and raw sound. The band's diverse makeup, including members from various nationalities, infuses a wide range of influences into their music, drawing from their individual backgrounds.
With roots in '80s, '90s, and '00s hardcore, Throwe's music is a fusion of bleak hardcore and black metal elements. Living in Scandinavia has also left its mark on their sound, influenced by the region's harsh weather and the legacy of black and death metal. Their latest release, "Forfald," meaning "decay" in Danish, delves into life's struggles and the inevitable march towards death, blending lyrics in both Danish and English.
The band's dedicated effort culminated in the release of "Forfald" after two and a half years of meticulous work. The record is a testament to their commitment to the hardcore/metal scene. With the support of international labels, the album is now available on various formats, showcasing the collaborative spirit that fuels the underground music scene.
Despite their busy schedules outside of music, Throwe is gearing up for a series of live shows in the upcoming months. Additionally, plans are in motion to hit the studio later this year for either an EP or a split LP. The band's openness to collaborations reflects their enthusiasm for pushing boundaries and exploring new musical territories.
Denmark's hardcore scene is currently thriving, with a surge of new bands and releases that showcase a diverse range of sounds and styles. The community's vibrancy is attributed not only to the musicians but also to the dedicated individuals behind the scenes—promoters, photographers, and volunteers—all integral to the scene's vitality. Bands like Foreshadower, Telos, and EYES are just a glimpse of the talent emanating from the region.
For those intrigued by Throwe's music, the band actively engages with fans on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Bandcamp. Their online presence offers a glimpse into their creative process and upcoming projects, providing a deeper connection with their audience. Stay tuned for more updates on their musical journey and future releases.
