Born from the intersection of Threshold and Ascend, Threshend is a heavy groove metal band out of Southern California. Their passionate, riff-driven music is designed to help listeners conquer inner darkness and break through to their happy place.

The band was founded by 12-year-old guitar prodigy and Gibson Artist, Russell Watson, alongside 25-year-old drummer Triko Chavez, widely recognized for his powerhouse drumming style with OTTTO, Feed the Beast, and 12 Gauge Trixie. Joining them on bass is multi-instrumentalist, 19-year-old, Gavin Lee.

Musically, Threshend delivers hard-hitting groove metal deeply rooted in the heavy-handed mastery of the metal legends who inspire them. They seamlessly blend the foundational, doom-soaked weight of Black Sabbath and the aggressive precision of Lamb of God with the infectious, Blues-based swagger of Pantera and Black Label Society.
