Violent Testimony is a four-piece grind/death/thrash band from the barren wastelands of Cheyenne, Wyoming.

The band first formed in early 2014 by Nathan Yanchek (guitar), Dylan Newbury (drums), and Tylor Wade (vocals/guitar).  The band initially played thrash metal with some grind flavor.  After playing handfuls of shows in Wyoming and Colorado, the band went on hiatus in mid-2015 while its members pursued other projects such as Casket Huffer and Dystopioid.  The band later restarted in 2022 with the same members and a more vicious grind sound.  With the addition of Than Wilson (Casket Huffer, ex-Truth, ex-Deadspeak) on bass, Violent Testimony has since has brought a devastating combination of grind/death/thrash metal to the Rocky Mountain region.  The band has been aggressively writing, recording, and playing one rowdy show after the other, looking to push its sound and following to the next level.  The band released its first EP "Devastate" in March 2024. Violent Testimony now follows up with its first full-length album “Aggravate” ripping through 21 crushing tracks in less than 26 minutes and delivering the aggressive rowdy energy Violent Testimony has become known for in their scene.  “Aggravate” is now out via Horror Pain Gore Death Productions.  

Violent Testimony has had the honor of sharing the stage with epic bands such as DRI, Eyehategod, No/Mas, BRAT, Bonginator, Maul, 908, Trigger, Spectral Voice, Groin, Genestealer, and many more.
