Whiplash

Whiplash is an American thrash metal band formed in 1984 in Passaic, New Jersey. They are centered around guitarist and vocalist Tony Portaro, the only remaining original member. Despite lacking major success, Whiplash has been recognized as one of the first East Coast thrash metal bands of the 1980s, and are notable for featuring drummer Tony Scaglione, who had been in and out of Whiplash since its inception, and temporarily filled-in for Dave Lombardo on Slayer's Reign in Blood tour.
