TRUTH CORRODED are an extreme thrash metal band from Adelaide, South Australia. Since reforming as a five piece in 2003, the band has recorded three albums, OUR ENEMY IS THE WEAPON in 2005 and UPON THE WARLORDS CRAWL in 2008 (mixed and mastered by Jonas Kjellgren of SCAR SYMMETRY). Both albums were released in Australia through Truth Inc Records, a label established and run by members of the band, which since its inception in 2005 has gone on to represent several other Australian acts. Both albums were also released in Asia through Singapore based label Mourning Sound Records, with the band touring throughout Asia from 2007 - 2009.
TRUTH CORRODED entered the studio to record the bands new album WORSHIP THE BLED in 2010. The new album features DAATH drummer Kevin Talley, who has also performed with bands such as CHIMAIRA, MISERY INDEX and DYING FETUS. The band has once again worked with Jonas Kjellgren, who mixed, mastered and contributed a lead guitar solo to the albums opening song ‘ Knives of the Betrayed ‘. The album features artwork from KILLUSTRATIONS who has provided art for bands such as DEW-SCENTED, ZYKLON, SODOM, ABORTED & ONE MAN ARMY. The album is being scheduled for an Australian release in early 2011, with the band currently making submissions for licensing overseas.
Since entering into a publicity agreement with U.S based TEAM ALL ABOUT THE MUSIC in late 2009, the bands last album ‘ Upon The Warlords Crawl ‘ has received outstanding reviews from across the U.S and Europe building on the excellent acclaim from Australian and Asian media following its release in 2008 (see attached quotes) The band and TAATM are now working on touring opportunities in Europe and the U.S in 2011 in support of the bands new album, and building on the development of the bands profile following its 2009 / 2010 international publicity drive.
TRUTH CORRODED have shared the stage with bands such as LAMB OF GOD, BEHEMOTH, ARCH ENEMY, CHIMAIRA, DEATH ANGEL, IN FLAMES, STRAPPING YOUNG LAD, DARK TRANQUILITY, SUFFOCATION and SEPULTURA both in Australia and overseas since 2005. With the release of the bands new album ‘WORSHIP THE BLED‘ Truth Corroded are now looking to ascend to the next stage of the bands promising career.
‘ .. fly, swim, or drive to Australia to see these guys tear the shit out of every living creature with a sound so damn heavy and devastating that you’ll think that you’ve entered a nuclear war armed only with a switchblade...these guys are poised to steal the metal spotlight in a grand way. Upon the Warlords Crawl is superb ‘
THE RIPPLE EFFECT.COM ( U.S )
‘Australia’s Truth Corroded have set up 11-tracks of pride, anger, and frustration on their new album, “Upon the Warlords Crawl.” These solid tracks beats you hard into the ground making you stick around to see what else they have to offer ‘
METAL MANIACS ( U.S )
While most of us may have never heard about Truth Corroded because they are from Australia, these men are ready to take the world by storm and pummel your skulls while they do it....This album is what I would imagine a 12 round boxing match would be with old school Mike Tyson. These guys are too good to be secluded to Australia.
COREZINE.COM ( U.S )
‘...everything in Australia will kill you in a heartbeat. If I were to ever go to Australia, I will not step foot outdoors. The outback is a brutal fucking place. Everything’s either venomous or big and strong enough to tear you limb from limb. So is it just a mere coincidence that extreme thrashers Truth Corroded share the same continent with some of the world’s deadliest creatures?
HEAVY BLOG IS HEAVY.COM ( U.S )
Truth Corroded could be on the verge of breaking through into the top league
SEA OF TRANQUILITY.COM ( U.S )
‘...one line summary: While everything else from Australia will either kill, fuck or eat you, Truth Corroded thrashes you to death. When you hear names like Testament, The Haunted, Slayer, Dark Angel, Malevolent Creation, Cannibal Corpse, Lamb Of God, Devildriver and Chimaira used to describe your sound...you know you’re in pretty good company’ 7.8 / 10
IT CAME FROM THE INTERNET.COM ( U.S )

BLUNT MAGAZINE (AUST)
“As impressive as ‘Our Enemy Is The Weapon’ was three years ago, Truth Corroded have well and truly outdone themselves with ‘Upon The Warlords Crawl’. And given the success that they had with the last album, it doesn’t take a genius to understand that ‘Upon The Warlords Crawl’ is going to really take the band to the next level in no time at all”
