Begets Of Autumn
Band Story
Begets Of Autumn: Sixteen Years of Sound, Fury, and Southern Steel
In a city better known for its country roots, Begets Of Autumn has carved out a legacy of blistering riffs and unrelenting energy from the heart of Nashville, Tennessee. For over 16 years, this power trio has been pushing the boundaries of metal—writing, recording, and refining a sound that is as heavy as it is haunting.
Made up of Dan Wilk (vocals/guitars), Harold Planty (drums), and John O'Hara (vocals/bass/keyboards), Begets Of Autumn is more than a band—it’s a brotherhood forged through volume, velocity, and a shared commitment to authentic, no-compromise music.
Their output is nothing short of staggering. With 210 original songs in their catalog and counting, the band is in a near-constant state of creation. Each track is a piece of the larger mosaic—a sound that fuses crushing guitar lines, thunderous percussion, and brooding melodies with atmospheric keys and dual vocal power. Whether grinding through doom-laden breakdowns or building toward melodic, almost orchestral peaks, their music defies formula while staying fiercely rooted in metal.
While many chase trends, Begets Of Autumn continues to evolve on their own terms. Sixteen years strong, they’ve become a fixture in Nashville’s underground scene—a testament to endurance, creativity, and the undying spirit of metal.
And they’re not slowing down. With more music always on the horizon and a deep archive of sound to draw from, Begets Of Autumn stands as a reminder that the loudest voices often rise from the unlikeliest places.
