Band biography Upload photo
Exciter was one of the very first big thrash metal bands and was formed in Ottawa, Canada, in 1978 (at that time they were called Hell Razor but they changed into Exciter in 1980). The band has since then gone through lots of line-up changes which has resulted in a couple of more or less mediocre releases but as they once again found a steady line-up their late 1990's releases marked a new high in the band's career. In 2002 the band lost their vocalist and is currently without a record deal since they have just left the French label Osmose Productions.
