History

Lååz Rockit formed in Berkeley, California in 1981, initially under the name Depth Charge. Vocalist Michael Coons and guitarist Aaron Jellum built out the lineup with guitarist Phil Kettner, drummer Victor Agnello, and bassist Willy Lange, settling into their final name by 1983 — a playful phonetic spelling of "Laser Rocket" reportedly inspired by a line in Clint Eastwood's film The Enforcer. Musically the band moved from power metal roots into fast, aggressive thrash, becoming part of the Bay Area scene alongside Metallica, Testament, Exodus, and Death Angel. Their 1984 debut, City's Gonna Burn, is often cited as an early blueprint for the genre; later albums included No Stranger to Danger (1985), Know Your Enemy (1987), Annihilation Principle (1989), and Nothing's Sacred (1991). The band also contributed the song "Leatherface" to the soundtrack of Texas Chainsaw Massacre III. Despite headlining shows over a then-unknown Metallica in the early days, Lååz Rockit split in 1992 after a Japanese tour, later reuniting in 2005 for festival dates including Dynamo Open Air.
