Dethonator are a New Wave Of Traditional Heavy Metal band from the South East of England.
We started out in the East Midlands as Kaleb, during the earliest days of the NWOTHM.
Since 2009 we've been active in the UK Metal and Rock venue circuit as Dethonator.
Our sound is fully melodic in the classic Heavy Metal style, focusing on clean vocals and lyric
lead guitar melodies. We also have secondary influences from Thrash, Progressive and,
occasionally, Extreme Metal genres in our music.
Our ethos: to make anthemic songs with an epic tone for all metalheads to enjoy and to deliver
high quality live performances.
We have released 4 Albums, 1 EP and 2 Singles to date, including a concept album based on
Dracula. Having written a lot of material together during the Covid-19 Pandemic,
we are now currently working on the first of two new albums, the forst of which we hope to
release during early 2026.
