[[Lich King]] is a [[Thrash Metal]] band from Massachusetts that was founded in 2004 by vocalist Tom Martin (who may have also played some or all of the instruments for the first two albums; the real identities of the musicians on those albums are not given). Lich King are heavily influenced by Exodus, Vio-Lence, and [[Slayer]] and are known for their humorous lyrics, [[Heavy Meta]], and their very brash image and promotional techniques. The band finally found its feet in 2009-2010 with its third LP ''World Gone Dead'', which featured a full band lineup and massively improved production.

=== Lich King show examples of: ===
 
* [[Boastful Rap|Boastful Thrash]]: Too many of their songs to list, most notably "Black Metal Sucks"
* [[Black Sheep Hit]]: "Black Metal Sucks" was just goofy album filler before it aroused an [[Internet Backdraft]] of epic proportions and instantly multiplied Lich King's recognition several times, much to the band's delight.
Line 62 ⟶ 61:
* [[The Gadfly]]: Tom Martin, and he's really good at it too.
* [[This Is Sparta]]: From "Waste":
