About

Thrown, the Stockholm-based outfit, aren’t just playing hardcore; they’re weaponizing it. Emerging from the Swedish underground, this quintet detonates with a furious blend of metallic hardcore and a distinctly Scandinavian sense of bleakness. Their sound, forged in the fires of bands like Code Orange and Vein.fm, is less a straightforward homage and more a brutal reinterpretation, injecting dissonant melodies and industrial textures into the genre’s already volatile mix. Thrown’s trajectory has been swift and seismic. From early demos to their signing with Arising Empire, they’ve built a reputation for uncompromising intensity both on record and live. Songs like "gray matter" and "guilt" showcase their penchant for crushing breakdowns and vocalist Marcus Lundqvist’s visceral screams, reflecting themes of inner turmoil and societal decay. More than just sonic aggression, Thrown offers a critical lens on the human condition. Their art, visually and lyrically, explores the darker corners of the psyche. Recent performances supporting bands like Knocked Loose have cemented their status as a rising force in the hardcore scene. With a debut album imminent, Thrown are poised to leave an indelible mark, proving that Swedish hardcore isn't just surviving—it's evolving into something terrifyingly beautiful.
