Support the scene: High Council

Flying the flag for New Jersey metal since 2003, High Council takes centre stage this Support the Scene Friday. Forging a sound that’s equal parts grit, melody, and mystique, their journey includes standout releases like Held in Contempt (2018) and the latest full-length assault, Cruel and Unusual (2025).

They have loads of merch and music up fro grabs, so check out what they have to offer over on their bandcamp.Remember buying physical merch always goes so much further. It puts more money in bands pockets, helping them to do what they do best and that is deliver the metal! So if you love the bands music and can do so, grab some merch and help keep the metal flame burning!
