Radiant Knife

**Radiant Knife** is a Lafayette, Louisiana-based duo known for their chaotic blend of progressive metal, sludge, and experimental noise. Formed in 2016 by multi-instrumentalist Stephen Sheppert and drummer Greg Granger, the pair crafts dense, riff-heavy soundscapes that balance technical precision with raw, unhinged energy. Their releases, like the 2021 album *Pressure* and the 2023 EP *RK/W*, showcase their knack for merging angular rhythms, psychedelic textures, and gritty vocals into something both punishing and hypnotic.

With a reputation for relentless live shows and a DIY ethos, Radiant Knife has carved out a niche in the underground metal scene, often collaborating with fellow Louisiana artists. Tracks like *The Ghost* and *The Body* highlight their love for sci-fi themes and unapologetically heavy grooves, while their self-titled 2017 debut and 2019’s *Science Fiction* cemented their status as innovators in progressive sludge.
