Ballista

Ballista is an emerging force within the heavy metal scene, known for an aggressive style that fuses elements of thrash, hardcore, and death metal. The band's namesake—a weapon from medieval times that hurled large projectiles—aptly reflects the intensity and impact of their sound. Since their inception, Ballista's music has been characterized by its relentless energy, intricate guitar work, and brutally honest lyrics.

The band's catalog captures a narrative of personal and societal struggle, as reflected in the visceral narratives of songs like "Possessed by Guilt" and "Atone / Boot Heel." With their recent releases, such as "The Game / Target Practice" and "Ballista Territory," they continue to hone their confrontational sound, cementing their place in the metal community. The dual-release singles, "1000 Stitches 2000 Cuts/Absolute Terror" and "Slither / Marionette," showcase the band's dexterity, merging speed with an unyielding rhythmic assault. Ballista's latest offering, "Cleanse," continues to push the boundaries of their genre, suggesting not only a refinement of their craft but also a readiness to take on the heavy music pantheon with full force.
