Brotality
Infectious energy. Irresponsible grooves. Infinitely heavy. The signature sound of Brotality smashes the glory days of thrash metal together with modern melodies, progressive grooves, and bouncing riffs, culminating in a refreshingly energetic and compelling sound. This “expertly crafted” (For The Rock) sound is overwhelmingly present in Brotality’s latest work, It Feeds. It Feeds brings the listener to euphoric heights with larger than life melodies, then juxtapose those triumphs with slamming rhythmic and groove-worshiping sections that leave the listener reeling.
The guys in Brotality – brothers Bryce Maopolski (guitar/vocals) and Reece Maopolski (bass/vocals) along with John Haring (drums) – have created a band that unapologetically delivers a signature blend of time-tested riffage, soaring melodies, and sections of pure, punishing musical destruction. With crushing riffs, muscular vocals, and “brilliant musical prowess” (Kingdom Core) in abundance, Brotality has created “their own unique and powerful vision” (Rock N Load) worthy of carrying forward the Heavy Metal moniker. They cite Mastodon and Megadeth as influences, and it won't take long for anyone who listens to their award-winning music to feel their undeniable old-school sensibilities, wrapped in youthful energy and modern brutality.
Since 2021, Brotality has embarked on extensive, independently booked and managed headlining summer tours, destroying stages all over the eastern half of the United States. In April of 2023 they co-headlined Exodo Fest in Tlaxcala, Mexico- a festival that has previously seen headliners such as P.O.D., Norma Jean, and Haste The Day. With each and every release, Brotality further refines their craft and continues to deliver what can only come from this group. With the wrap of their 2024 “It Feeds” Tour, Brotality currently finds themselves deep in the mixing process of new songs which await release.
