Exogen

Exogen is a four-piece alt-metal band from Kingston, Ontario, built on fast riffs, raw energy, and songs that move between atmosphere and impact. Formed in 2022, the band pulls from the weight of Mastodon and Gojira, the moodier edge of Deftones and Tool, and the straight-ahead force of Metallica, while still chasing whatever feels right in the room.

Made up of Nathan Graham on lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Joel Schell on lead guitar, Isaac Heathcock on bass, and Ben Snider on drums, Exogen has become known locally for live sets that feel loud, loose, and real. Their songs often shift from softer, uneasy verses into heavy, punchy choruses, with effect-heavy leads and riffs that are meant to hit hard on stage.

Following their 2025 debut EP Game of Puppets and their 2026 release I Am Rot, Exogen continues to build momentum in Kingston and beyond, bringing a sound that is heavy, atmospheric, and always a little restless.
