Beast Mode
Beast Mode hails from Athens, Georgia, where they’ve set themselves apart by blending a classic thrash ethos with modern death metal grit.
Their most recent release, “Seventh Solstice”, features two brand new songs as well as two re-recorded tracks from the band’s first LP, updated much like Pound of Flesh to showcase the lineup changes since that record.
The current members are Corey Flowers (lead guitar/vox), Henry Mitchell III (rhythm guitar/vox), Cameron Yohr (bass/vox), and Guido Hrovat (Drums).
Current reviews of “Seventh Solstice”
Flagpole Magazine feature:
“If Beast Mode’s previous release, 2021’s Pound of Flesh, came together in a chain of fast and brutal explosions, Seventh Solstice offers a complex refinement of the group’s primeval charge.”

No Clean Singing: “The Forge”
“It wastes no time kicking up the adrenaline levels with flurries of darting and jittering guitars, skull-snapping drums, voracious growls, and incinerating screams.”
-Islander
Record Plug Magazine (March 2023, print only publication)
“…five tracks of high energy, modern thrash with touches of Swedish melo-death.Chunky, palm muted riffs give way to twin guitar harmonies with big hooks, melodies and tasty solos.”
