Kommand is death metal from Los Angeles, drawing inspiration from classic US and Finnish acts while blasting themes of violence and conflict. Formed in 2015 as a three-piece, their 2016 and 2017 demos vanished from stock before ever deploying their expanded five-person lineup for live devastation. Since their first show in 2018 Kommand has campaigned regularly with local and touring death metal, firmly establishing themselves in the extreme Los Angeles underground. As close allies with LA based Maggot Stomp Records, the label released a compilation of both demos. Meanwhile Kommand continued to hone their craft, composing the material destined to become their debut LP: Terrorscape. Released on Maggot Stomp in July 2020 the record stands as the best representation to date of their heavy, aggressive, raw, and war-themed metal.
