This week on Heavy Metal Tones, we dive headfirst into a crushing wall of riffs and raw aggression with Aarran Tucker — the bass-thumping, throat-shredding vocalist of UK thrash newcomers Struck A Nerve. Their self-titled debut album has just landed, and it hits hard: fast, furious, and unrelenting. We’ll explore the driving force behind the record — from the grit of recording, the anger fuelling the lyrics, to the horror-infused riffs that make tracks like “Nocturnal Terror,” “Inside the Torture Fortress” and “Raining Death” surge with venom.

Expect stories about what pushed Aarran and the band to create some of the most savage thrash this side of the Atlantic — as well as an inside look at how they plan to take this debut from the studio to the stage. If you’re hungry for head-banging catharsis and brutal honesty, this is one conversation you don’t want to miss.
