Artillery is one of Denmark’s longest-running and most influential thrash metal outfits. Formed in 1982 in Taastrup, just outside Copenhagen, they helped define a gritty, high-velocity sound that would influence generations of metal bands. Over four decades, Artillery has built a reputation for relentless riffs, precise musicianship, and a commitment to the core thrash ethos—fast tempos, shouted hooks, and heavy, memorable melodies. We’ve got you covered with a concise look at their biography, notable discography milestones, and where to catch them live on their current tour run.
