Wrathchild America

Wrathchild America was a thrash/power metal band from Virginia; they had previously performed under the names Atlantis, Tyrant and Wrathchild. They are also notable for including a then-unknown drummer named Shannon Larkin.

When the band signed to Atlantic Records in 1988, Wrathchild changed their name to Wrathchild America (as Wrathchild was already taken by a British glam metal band) and released two albums under that name before their split with Atlantic, which prompted the band to change their name to Souls at Zero.
