Tenet

Coming from a superb Canadian thrash pedigree featuring members of <a href="spotify:artist:3oEgpuVSe4DDtzR7GMiLyS">Zimmer's Hole</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:457qPvtiBTIl6LR4dZiKZy">Strapping Young Lad</a>, as well as having members involved with <a href="spotify:artist:74Hj7BmnUXyx2udrIEIKwX">Fear Factory</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:7u12AuhJ5AaJIgZAZe0US8">Dethklok</a>, Tenet makes classic, high-energy thrash metal that harkens back to a time when <a href="spotify:artist:3JysSUOyfVs1UQ0UaESheP">Anthrax</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:1IQ2e1buppatiN1bxUVkrk">Slayer</a> ruled the metal world. Originally formed in 1996 as a <a href="spotify:artist:457qPvtiBTIl6LR4dZiKZy">SYL</a> side project by Jed Simon, the band was initially a studio project, with Simon creating demos here and there and casually writing new material. After eventually signing with Century Media, Simon began to assemble the people to finally make Tenet a reality, recruiting <a href="spotify:artist:457qPvtiBTIl6LR4dZiKZy">SYL</a> members Gene Hoglan and Bryan Stroud, as well as Legacy's (later <a href="spotify:artist:28hJdGN1Awf7u3ifk2lVkg">Testament</a>) Steve Souza and <a href="spotify:artist:5MhPZVXE28sD9rXE3GU1uN">Forbidden</a>'s Glen Alvelais. Over a decade later, the band finally released their debut album, Sovereign, on Century Media. ~ Gregory Heaney, Rovi
