Thrash metal band Infanteria started out with the brothers Chris and Rob Hall playing Metallica covers in 2005. The band was officially started in early 2006 when Barry Pieterse joined, followed shortly thereafter by Jarrod Firmani.[1] Infanteria have played numerous South African festivals, namely Metal4Africa's SummerFest'13 and co-headlined WinterFest'15.[2] Infanteria played at RAMFest twice, the first time being in 2011. In 2014 they then opened for Trivium and Killswitch Engage.[3][4]

Infanteria represented South Africa at Wacken Open Air (W:O:A) in August 2013, after winning their local heat in Cape Town and the South African finals in Johannesburg of the Wacken Metal Battle.
