About Whiplash
Tony Portaro, legendary guitarist of WHIPLASH since 1984, leads a power-trio lineup ready to deliver thrash metal in old school style. Portaro's unique vocals and thrashing riffs keep heads banging, while his intricate, soaring leads inject metal into the air.
Bassist Dank DeLong, developed his bass style out of the 80's Metal/Hardcore/Punk scene in New York. An undeniable presence on stage, Dank's commanding backing vocals and bass trickery create a monstrous show.
Charlie Zeleny performs a show within a show. Widely renowned as a must-see performer, Sick Drummer Magazine named Charlie Z to its hall of fame, and Blender Magazine has labeled him one of metal's best drummers of all time.
Originally formed in New Jersey, USA in 1984, WHIPLASH began as the 3 Tonys: Portaro on guitar and vocals, Tony Scaglione on drums and Tony Bono (R.I.P. 2002) on bass. They were signed by Roadrunner Records in 1985, recorded their debut album "Power And Pain" and began touring.
