Diamond Plate, ALL TO END, +3 TBD

Diamond Plate

Detonating out of the suburbs of Chicago, DIAMOND PLATE quickly established themselves as one of the top forces in the emerging U.S. thrash metal scene. A young but formidable three-piece, DIAMOND PLATE made their debut in early 2008 with their raw-energy, no-nonsense "Mountains of Madness" E.P. release. Although the three members' ages averaged at a mere 15 years old, critics and metal fans alike saw the colossal potential of the band in the short release and the popularity of DIAMOND PLATE began to grow. After being approached by Stormspell Records, the "Mountains of Madness" E.P. was released as part of "Thrash Clash Vol. 2" with Swedish thrashers Oppression gracing the second half of the split. With the distribution of an indie label and self-promotion through the internet, the young three-piece from Chicago soon began to make a powerful international presence.
