Can't Kill Us

The world is full of evil. Harxson is here to kill it. NoLifeTilMetal Records is proud to announce the release of Can't Kill Us! Harxson unleashes fury upon the world on January 30, 2026. After igniting stages worldwide with thrash legends HIRAX during a nearly two-decade-long stint (that included a slew of acclaimed metal albums and EPs), the Long Beach-bred Lance and Steve Harrison forcefully return in an explosive new San Diego power-trio with a classic thrash attack... Harxson (pronounced "hair-ex-son"). The brothers are joined in the 2024-formed outfit by another HIRAX alum, drummer Mike Vega. "It was time to bust out, " declares bassist/vocalist Steve Harrison. "We had so many songs burning in our heads and dark-hearts. There was no better time than right now." Can't Kill Us sees Harxson collaborating with not one, but two celebrated thrash legends. The 7-song album was produced, mixed, and mastered by Bill Metoyer, whose discography includes Slayer's Show No Mercy, Haunting the Chapel EP, and Hell Awaits, as well as seminal releases from Armored Saint, Deliverance, D.R.I., C.O.C., Hirax, Sacred Reich, Trouble, Morbid Angel, Sadus, Tourniquet, W.A.S.P., and many more. As well, the CD and vinyl will arrive with cover artwork from illustrator Ed Repka, who painted Megadeth's Vic Rattlehead on the covers of Peace Sells... But Who's Buying, Rust in Peace, and more. Repka's artwork also graced the covers of the crucial first three albums from Death, classics by Dark Angel and Vio-Lence, and modern works by neo-thrashers like Municipal Waste and Toxic Holocaust. Additionally, the layout is being done by Scott Waters of NoLifeTilMetal Graphics (Deliverance, Anger As Art, Nevermore, Accuser, Flotsam & Jetsam, Gammacide, Iron Jaw, and hundreds more). The vinyl release is a limited pressing of only 200 units on heavyweight (140 gram) opaque orange vinyl and includes a photo/lyric insert. Likewise, the album is available on CD housed in a jewel case with a full-color lyric/photo booklet included. Harxson is aggressive thrash metal built for headbanging fans of Slayer, Exodus, S.O.D., Motörhead, and obviously, HIRAX.
