Guilt Trip

Hailing from Manchester, UK, Guilt Trip emerged in 2015 as a formidable force in the metallic hardcore and crossover thrash scene. Comprising Jay Valentine (vocals), Jak Maden (guitar), Sam Baker (guitar), Tom Aimson (drums), and Lily Kilcoyne (bass), the band is renowned for their electrifying, high-octane sound. They masterfully blend scorching thrash riffs, punishing aggressive breakdowns, and compelling melodic passages, creating a signature sonic intensity. Their journey reached a significant milestone with a recent signing to the prestigious Roadrunner Records in 2025, following previous associations with MLVLTD (the label run by the band Malevolence) and BDHW Records.
