Troglodyte

Formed in 2005 in Independence, Missouri, Troglodyte is a death metal band defined by its thematic obsession with Bigfoot and Sasquatch. The group delivers an extreme metal sound characterized by a blend of relentless speed and heavy, teeth-gnashing slow grooves. Their discography includes full-length releases such as Welcome to Boggy Creek (2011), Don't Go in the Woods (2012), Anthropological Curiosities and Unearthed Archaeological Relics (2015), and The Hierarchical Ecological Succession: Welcome to the Food Chain (2022). The band also documented their live performance style on the 2017 release Live from the Neptune. Troglodyte maintains a distinct aesthetic, often incorporating horror-inspired elements into their presentation while continuing to explore cryptid-focused narratives through their aggressive musical output.
