Founded by Dallas Toler-Wade (ex-Nile), Narcotic Wasteland has carved its own path with a relentless mix of technical precision and unflinching heaviness. The band is currently wrapping up their “Annihilation of the Wasteland” U.S. Tour.

Keefy caught up with Dallas to reflect on the band’s journey, the vision behind Narcotic Wasteland, and what fans can expect from their first European shows this Fall. With blistering riffs, crushing grooves, and thought-provoking lyrics, the band continues to prove why they’re one of the most vital acts in extreme metal.
