Pyracanda

**Pyracanda** is a German thrash metal band that first stormed onto the scene in the late ’80s, blending raw aggression with melodic hooks. Hailing from Hesse, they dropped their debut album, *Two Sides of a Coin*, in 1990, a cult classic that fused gritty riffs with occult-themed lyrics and a touch of prog-metal flair. After a hiatus, they reignited in the 2010s, reissuing remastered versions of fan favorites like *Thorns* and *The Dragon’s Cult* while teasing new material like the fiery *Hellfire* single. Known for their energetic live shows and collaborations with thrash legends like Kreator, Pyracanda remains a hidden gem for fans of Europe’s golden-era metal chaos.
