Loathe, who hail from the Mediterranean Island of Malta, are no beach slouches when it comes to work ethics. Not a band that minces their words, Loathe are on the cusp of a new rung in their ladder. After having released three EPs over the last 5 years, their new, full length album, entitled ‘Despondent By Design’, is a raw mix of death and thrash, that will burn nerve endings.. On the live circuit, Loathe are a constant appearance, having not only cris-crossed the UK many times over, but shared stages with the likes of Evile, Detonation, Sabbat, K.O.Kaine, SevenYearsDead and Let ‘Em Bürn. Locally, on their island of Malta, the band is known as a heavyweight among the metal bands and has played some legendary gigs, including 2 headlining spots in the famed Extreme Maltese Metal summer festival. Next on their agenda is another UK tour later in the fall and a full European mainland in the months following. For fans of Carcass, In Flames, Arch Enemy, Malevolent Creation, Possesed
