Warfield (Germany)




Warfield (Germany)
CD."With the Old Breed"

Warfield was founded in 2012 when bassist Frederik Pütz joined Johannes and Matthias Clemens and Dominik Marx, who had already been playing together for several years. Inspired by the legacy of German Thrash Metal, the band quickly forged a sound defined by speed, precision, and unfiltered energy.
After early shows, Dominic Potts joined on second guitar. The debut EP. "Call to War" followed in October 2014 via IMM-Records/Membran. In early 2015, Ethan Stokes took over on bass and contributed to the single "Barrage Fire" and its accompanying video.
By the end of 2015, both Potts and Stokes had left the band and Marc Hirschbach filled in on bass for live duties. Warfield went on to perform relentlessly across Germany and neighboring countries from club stages to festivals earning a reputation as a high-energy live act and workhorse of the underground scene.The band entered the studio in Kaiserslautern in early 2017 to record their debut album "Wrecking Command", released in April 2018. Combining new material with reworked tracks from their first EP, it marked a key step in establishing Warfield’s fierce and uncompromising sound. In the years that followed, Warfield expanded their reach far beyond their home base touring the Czech Republic with Insanity Alert. They shared stages with The Exploited, Abbath, Hypocrisy, Opeth, and many more further cementing their standing as a dynamic and dedicated live force in today’s thrash landscape.
In 2024, Warfield signed with Napalm Records and released their second studio album "With The Old Breed" in April 2025 an album that captures more than a decade of dedication, endurance, and passion for authentic Thrash Metal. In early 2027 they're going on tour together with Thrash Metal powerhouse Evil Invaders and genre veterans Heathen and Exhorder all across Europe.
