Gwazi is a hard rock and metal duo from Cleveland, Ohio, made up of longtime collaborators and friends Brandon Youngs and John Templeman. The pair first recorded together for fun as part of the 2015 RPM Challenge, creating their debut album *The Rise and Fall of the Indigo Inn*, and have remained consistently active ever since. Over the years, they've built an impressive catalog that includes two full-length albums, three EPs, and five singles, with tracks like "Fun" and "We Are Chaos" even landing in independent films.
The band's sonic journey has been one of constant evolution and experimentation. Their 2021 release *Enter The Fearless* marked a shift deeper into thrash metal territory with the crushing lead single "Satan Witch," and they continued pushing boundaries with their 2024 album *Goatfur*, released through Colossal Force Records. This record saw them fully embrace the death metal genre with fresh material and visuals, featuring tracks like "Goatfurs Command," "Rise of the Demon Seed," and "Existential Crisis," plus a special guest appearance from Danish guitar virtuoso Martin Jepsen Andersen. Whether you're into hard rock, thrash, or death metal, Gwazi delivers heavy riffs and uncompromising musicianship.
