Population Control
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
A punishing metal outfit based in the beer fueled city of Milwaukee WI, Population Control delivers a non-stop blend of no-frills thrash and melodic black metal. Drawing the majority of their inspiration from bands and musical styles from the 70s/80s & 90s: namely the everlasting classic Bay Area thrash; its cousin, NWOBHM, and black metal. The band emerged in 2014 with a musical style that was unique to the scene they played around in. There is zero nostalgia found in this band, no go-fund-me campaigns, and no breast implants. Just riffs.
Population Control signed with Beer City Records in 2019, and recorded their debut record Death Toll which was launched into the universe October 11th 2019.
