Whore of Bethlehem
Whore of Bethlehem is an extreme metal band that hails from Austin, TX. Originally formed in 2009 by
Ryan Sylvie, TJ Rodriguez, and Rene Martinez the band was established to break away from the signature
brutal death metal sound of Texas with a more blackened and sinister approach.
With demos and lineup changes during the years since its inception, the addition of Phil King and James
VanDenBerg rounded out the lineup for the debut album Upon Judas' Throne which was unleashed in
the May of 2014 to high acclaim of metal fans all over the world. After the album's release the band added
Alan Berryman on bass and Sam Axelrad on drums to the fold as the band continued to build a solid Texas
fan base and performance momentum doing domestic tours and sharing the stage with many prominent
bands.
