ABOUT RAZOR
Razor is a Canadian thrash metal band formed in 1984 in Guelph, Ontario. Razor combines the sound of bands like Venom, Slayer, Motörhead and early Metallica yet with more punk ethic to their music. Their music features plenty of speedy riffs, fast drumming, shredding guitar solos and of course the use of chainsaw’s. The group shot music videos for songs such as “Evil Invaders”, “Shotgun Justice”, “American Luck”, and “Sucker for Punishment”.
The band dissolved in 1992, but reformed in the late 1990s to record another album, titled Decibels, in 1997. The band dissolved again, and reformed in 2005, and are currently planning to record another studio album. Featured on the 2005 “The Gates of Hell Tour”.
