Splintered Throne’s high energy performances have captivated audiences on the US West Coast for over a decade.   The current line-up of Lisa Mann (vocals), J-Mo (guitar), Matt Dorado (guitar), Kris Holboke (drums), and Brian Bailey (bass), have refined the band's sound to a unique combination of Traditional Heavy Metal blended with progressive hard rock, replete with memorable hooks and melodies.  The evolution of this sound can be heard taking shape on the “Shattered” EP, the full length follow-up release, “The Octagon”, in 2014 and the full length release, REDLINE, released in 2018.  The band is slated to release the full-length release “The Greater Good of Man” in August of 2022, continuing the story of Splintered Throne and taking Traditional Metal to the masses.

Formed with the idea of bringing to the world metal music free of inane sub-genre limitations, cookie cutter ideas and compromised ethics in mostly vain attempts to "succeed", or fit into some category or scene, Violent Majority creates and promotes REAL metal...it isnt a sound or a style.. REAL metal has always been comprised of innovation and attitude...of doing what YOU want and waving your middle finger at anyone who doesn't like it, not trying to funnel creativity into a jar, or sound like some other band that we like to listen to. With influences ranging from the first metal bands, progressive metal, all the way through to the hardest and heaviest stuff out there today, this bands sound and style defies classification.
