Winds of Plague

About

Hailing from Upland, California, Winds of Plague is an American deathcore band that formed in 2002. The group is recognized for being one of the first deathcore bands to blend symphonic elements into their music, a pioneering approach that helped define their sound. The band's name draws inspiration from lyrics found in the Unearth song "Endless," specifically from the lines "Growing wings of sorrow/have brought you to the winds of plague." This musical reference reflects the band's connection to the broader metal community and their place within the evolution of the deathcore genre.
