Wilkes-Barre, PA – The wait is over. Pennsylvania thrash metal titans Cruel Bomb have officially detonated the underground with the release of their explosive self-titled debut album. Channeling the unrelenting fury of classic thrash with a lethal modern twist, Cruel Bomb is a high-octane assault that refuses to let up.
Since forming in 2018, Cruel Bomb has been on a mission to deliver uncompromising thrash metal with a fierce DIY spirit. The four-piece outfit—known for their bone-crushing riffs, machine-gun drumming, and ferocious vocal delivery—have already made waves with their previous EPs Manhattan Mischief (2019), Trinity Terror (2020), and Man Made (2022). With their full-length debut now out, they take their sound to a whole new level.
Recorded at Novro Studios, Cruel Bomb is a blistering declaration of intent. It nods to the giants of the genre—Slayer, Anthrax, Metallica, Exodus—while forging a path uniquely their own. Tracks roar with primal aggression, fusing pit-ready grooves and politically charged fury in a way that fans of Power Trip and Hatebreed will instantly connect with.
Adding to the album’s explosive impact is legendary artist Ed Repka, who created the menacing cover art for the 2025 release. Known for his iconic work with Megadeth, Death, and Municipal Waste, Repka’s visual assault perfectly captures the band’s intensity and message.
Renowned for their electrifying live shows, Cruel Bomb has shared the stage with some of the metal scene’s fiercest acts, earning a reputation as one of the most punishing live bands on the East Coast. With Cruel Bomb, they aim to spread their sonic destruction far and wide.
Don’t miss out on one of 2025’s most devastating thrash metal releases. The bomb has dropped—are you ready to feel the blast?
If you want, I can also craft a punchy, social-media-ready version that hits hard and screams “OUT NOW!” for Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. It’ll grab attention in under 30 seconds of scrolling. Do you want me to do that too?
