Weekly Dose of Metal: Tenet
Death Thrash from Canada. Are you interested? Former members of Strapping Young Lad and Exodus. Interested now? Gene fucking Hoglan. Ah, now I got your attention.
Tenet was started as a side project of Strapping Young Lad’s guitarist Jed Simon, later to be joined by Glen Alvelais of Forbidden Evil, Byron Stroud of Strapping Young Lad and Fear Factory, Gene Hoglan of every band on earth and the latest addition, former Testament and Exodus vocalist Steve Souza.
The band started in 2002, recorded a demo in 2003 and released their first album ‘Sovereign’ in 2009. This next song, ‘Being and Nothingness,’ comes off that album.
