A Sound Of Thunder's Nina Osegueda

      Built around the powerhouse vocals of classically trained opera singer Nina Osegueda, the band was formed in 2008 by guitarist Josh Schwartz and drummer Chris Haren. Their debut EP "A Sound Of Thunder" appeared in 2009, followed by the full-length "Metal Renaissance " in 2011.

For their sophomore outing, 2012's "Out Of The Darkness", the band enlisted the help of platinum award-winning producer Kevin "131" Gutierrez, and in 2013 and 2014 they issued the Kickstarter-funded "Time's Arrow" and "The Lesser Key Of Solomon", the former of which featured a guest vocal from Blaze Bayley (Wolfsbane, ex-Iron Maiden). 2015 followed with more band successes in "Tales From The Deadside" Mad Neptune Records 2015 "Who Do You Think We Are?" released in 2016

“It Was Metal,” the 2018 album unveiled the self titled track and highly acclaimed animated video on YouTube raking in over 5K views of the Kickstarter funded video. Comedian (and huge metalhead) Brian Posehn lends a voiceover to the track, which was also acknowledged for Nina's voice on the track, quoted as "absolutely killer on this one!"

Also amid the debate over whether the Spanish region of Catalonia should be allowed to gain its independence, Catalan leaders held a referendum on whether the region should separate from Spain with the Spanish government calling the vote illegal. As violence unfolded (Nina Osegueda's mother is Catalan and many of her relatives still live in Catalonia, including her grandfather, uncles and cousins) Osegueda wanted to show her support for her family, and A Sound of Thunder had recently recorded a version of the Catalonian anthem, which the band posted two days after the independence vote. The song took off. Within two weeks, it had over a million hits on YouTube.

ASOT Press Reviews
Johnny Price - Bare Bones Music "A Sound of Thunder's Out of the Darkness is premium, kick ass, classic heavy metal..." "Look out boys, the next great metal singer is here."
Craig Hartranft - Danger Dog Music Reviews “A Sound Of Thunder is not just some typical female-fronted metal band, as proven by their second album Out Of The Darkness. With a singer who is not just all looks, and a sound that has the best parts of heavy metal, Out Of The Darkness is a galvanizing effort.”
Blabbermouth.net “This is just straight up, in your face, pounding metal, with classic metal riffs and the strong (to say the least) classic metal vocal style of Nina Osegueda.”
Tony Cannella - Femme Metal Webzine “They slide easily between thrash and prog, keeping the songs constantly driving forward along with Schwartz and his evil solos. I highly recommend checking out this album and seeing this band live. ”
Johnnie Vrana - Shockwave Magazine “Nina Osegueda with her long brown hair takes on all the attention for the evening, running sideways along the stage, jumping energetically and just rocking out on stage. The crowd reacts positively, jumping up and down on some songs, dancing and screaming their support. In fact, the crowd was so enthusiastic that I was deaf the whole next day. ”
Rams Head Live! hosts metal group A Sound of Thunder - The Retriever Weekly “A.S.O.T. has a very classic metal sound in the vein of Iron Maiden. Except this time it is fronted by a woman Nina Osegueda, who exudes sexiness with her curves and bright red corset. It was like a beacon on stage.”
Jill Hughes Kirtland - USA Prog Music“[From EP Review] Overall, this is an excellent first effort by this group. I really do enjoy Nina's strong and powerful vocals on here. Josh is awesome on the guitars, plus Chris delivers a solid backing on the drums. These guys deliver a fairly unique take on the power metal genre that I do find somewhat refreshing. It is almost like they combine the old-school Judas Priest/Black Sabbath sound and mix in a bit of the more modern HammerFall or Helloween sound, and then front the whole thing with a female. In the end I actually really enjoyed what I heard here and am actually looking forward to getting to see these guys play a live gig up at Jaxx. I would recommend checking these guys out. Four out of Five Devil Horns (m/m/m/m/). ”
