Angkor Wat

Angkor Wat (presumably named for the Hindu temple) was a thrash band that emerged from Texas in the late eighties, formed by guitarists Adam Grossman and Danny Lohner. Their two albums featured slightly unconvential thrash, crossover-ish vocals from Grossman, and just a hint of the industrial leanings that proved to be a precursor to their later musical style. By 1992 the band was done, and Grossman and Lohner had formed a new group, the full-on industrial metal band Skrew. Later Grossman served as a touring guitarist with Ministry and Lohner worked in Nine Inch Nails. In 2018, several core members (though neither Grossman nor Lohner) reformed the band.
