Who we are

We are Texas Ketamine, Death Metal band from Boise Idaho. Formed in the Summer of 2021 by a group of friend, we try to showcase a diverse representation of old school death metal, while trying to incorporate more modern slam influence without taking away from the old school feel. To us it is important that no track sounds alike. Our goal is to make unique music while avoiding repetition, as well as bringing intense energy and performing memorable sets that are sure to leave an impression. From the slammiest of riffs to the most melodic of solos, we are Texas ketamine...

Discogrophy

2021 - Prime Rib Demo

Recorded just weeks after forming a solid lineup we recorded the Prime Rib demo. The result was an extremely raw, abrasive and in aggressive representation of what remains one of our most popular tracks.

2021 Texas Ketamine - Texas Ketamine

Our first full length release. This album helped us find the sound we had been working to form. Using heavy influence from old school death metal, creating a new sound that helped shape us into what we are today. With this album we tried to represent a wide variety of our sound, while avoiding tropes. We feel this album showcases our unique sound as tracks like, "Nailed to the Cross" help represent our more slammy sound, as tracks such as, "Prime Rib" and :When Blade Meets Bone" showcase our more unique "signature sound" and tracks such as "Self Titled" represent our more melodic side of things.

2023 Trisection - Barn, Brutalism, Texas Ketamine

This split EP, released in 2023 showcased Boise's unique sound with 3 of the hardest hitting bands in the area.

2026 - Whippets and Knife Fights

the single to prepare for the next full length LP. This single brings a higher quality production than previous releases. High energy and extremely heavy!

LIve shows

Since our formation in the summer of 2021 we have played a large amount of local shows as well as toured the west coast. Our live performances have become popular in the area as we bring as much energy as humanly possible, in conjunction with the craziest frontman to come up in recent years.
