Forming in 2015, INTENT underwent line-up changes and spent time developing their sound before heading into the live scene. The outfit soon began opening up for bands like OVERKILL, DRI, and HAVOK to name a few. 2018 saw the release of their debut album Vox Populi, and now in 2022, Exile displays the thrashers’ hard work to cultivate the next era of their sound. Greeted with an explosive introduction to “Victims of Conquest”, INTENT launch head first into ludicrous speed, fierce energy and dynamic instrumentation. Thundering through the tracks, INTENT’s immense impact never falters. “Primal Instinct” awakens a dark mood that seeps through the instruments and vocals, with a focus on the rhythmic quality of the music. “Time” deviates into non-standard time signatures enhancing the chaotic atmosphere and showcasing a progressive side to the band’s compositional style.
