Terror, the Los Angeles-based hardcore punk band, has been a driving force in the scene since 2002. Founded by vocalist Scott Vogel and drummer Nick Jett, the band's relentless energy and powerful sound have made them a cornerstone of modern beatdown hardcore.
While their lineup has seen several changes throughout the years, the core of Terror remains intact. The current roster features the ferocious vocals of Vogel, the punishing drum work of Jett, and the razor-sharp guitar riffs of Martin Stewart and Jordan Posner. Chris Linkovich holds down the low end on bass, completing the sonic assault.
Terror has released eight studio albums, their latest being the impactful "Pain Into Power" (2022). This prolific output has solidified their position as one of the most influential bands in their genre, a fact acknowledged by Stereogum who called them "an institution within their genre."
Early Days: From Garage to Global Stage
The band's journey began in February 2002, with Vogel, guitarist Todd Jones, drummer Jett, and bassist Matt Smith forming the initial lineup. Their name, however, didn't come until April 2002, just before their first shows supporting Death Threat, American Nightmare, and Striking Distance on a West Coast tour. Those early gigs were preceded by a warm-up show with Diehard Youth in Ventura, California.
Their debut album, "One with the Underdogs," proved to be a massive success, selling over 40,000 copies. Terror's reach has extended far beyond their Los Angeles roots, with tours across Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Korea, Mexico, and South America, spreading their explosive sound and captivating a global hardcore audience.
