An era is coming to an end!
From the very beginning of Lesson In Violence our man on the
drums has always been a true thrash-disciple and still is.
Scraper played a big role in the last years of Lesson In

together!
Scraper is retiring from Lesson In Violence and we wish him all
the best!

Thank you metalheads,
it was amazing how many of you sent us some pics to create
our new video! We really appreciate your support! It's not a typical
lyric-video how everyone else does it these days. We made a
picture-video and we definitely don’t take things too serious!
Many of the pics you sent were from earlier times so we tried to
capture this spirit with the style of our video and kept it
intentionally old-fashioned and different. So please enjoy our
pic-vid spiced with lyrics!
06.05.2022
We need you!
'Lesson In Violence' is planning to create a music video
for the album 'The Thrashfall Of Mankind' and you shall be the
the main actors!
So if you want to be part of it, just
send us your most thrashy selfies. No matter if 'horns up in the
bathtub' or with a beer in or below your camping-chair,
headbanging or hugging the toilet. Feel free!
We need
about 300 pics to be ready, so don't hold yourselfes back! Best
send your pics in landscape format and please take note, that we
can't use bandpics. Please make sure, that there is only
yourself to be seen in the pictures.
So if you're in, send
your pictures to
casting@lessoninviolence.com.
To thank you, we will give you our next single before
the second album will be released.
Your mail will be
answered with further notice for privacy terms etc.
We
added some examples to give you some inspiration!

Hello Folks,
we got some news for you. 'Lesson In Violence' has a
new man on the guitar. His name is 'Michael Helbig' and he has
always been a good friend and a supporter of our music. One of
the main reason for recruiting him is that he is as much a
thrash-enthusiast as the rest of 'Lesson In Violence'. He first
joined the stage with us on the 'Metal Franconia Festival 2022'
and did a really awesome job.
We also want to thank
our former guitar-hero André for the good times we had together
and all the efforts he brought into 'Lesson In Violence' and the
first album 'The Thrashfall of Mankind'. “This is sure your baby
too!”
We decided to go different ways because we
faced some different focuses and visions of what the future will
hold. Dear André, we wish you all the best for your projects and
'Lesson In Violence' is sure to meet up with you somewhere in
time.

radio stations all around the world.

Listen you metalheads out there!
During this fucking pandemic we were literally imprisoned but we
used the time to set up the recording of our first album. So we
tried to make the best out of it and now we are done with most of
the recordings. Right now we are recording the vocals. When it's
done there will be only backing vocals left. After that it will
take time to mix a sound, that will blow everyones mind.
As you can see, the process is going on and is pretty much
advanced. When we are done we will chose the songs for our album
wisely, that you get the full package of our thrash enthusiasm!
We can´t wait to return to the stage, hopefully in 2021. Till
then, don't bother yourselves too much because of all the shit
that's going on. Just think to yourself „ALL YOU NEED IS THRASH“!
02.06.2020
