We’re happy to announce SCYTHE BEAST, a local thrash metal band that will be pounding our stage to the ground with their merciless mix of old-school thrash and modern metal influences! Especially cool: Some of the band members are part of the Reload crew themselves – so they know the festival like the back of their hand and will really heat you up!

Since their formation in 2019, SCYTHE BEAST have been capturing the hearts of fans who also love bands like Slayer, Kreator and Metallica with their sound. They manage to transport the aggressive thrash metal of the 80s into the present without losing any of its power. With hard-hitting guitar riffs, razor-sharp solos and socially critical lyrics, they deliver exactly what hungry metalheads are looking for!

Their debut album “Indicted for Misconception”, released in 2021, has shown that they are not just a tribute to the thrash legends, but also set their own accents. Their live shows are the stuff mosh pits are made of. Get ready for a show full of adrenaline, neck-breaking riffs and plenty of metal action.
