I Threshold vanno sicuramente annoverati tra i più importanti gruppi progressive metal inglesi degli Anni Novanta.

Nati in concomitanza dell'esplosione americana del genere, si sono sempre distinti per sonorità ricercate e molto melodiche, raramente ultra-tecniche.

La formazione guidata da Karl Groom ha subito diversi avvicendamenti - si ricorda in particolare la morte del cantante Andrew "Mac" McDermott nel 2011 - ma questo non le ha impedito di produrre musica con continuità (prima con InsideOut Music, poi con Nuclear Blast).

L'album "Legends Of The Shires" è uscito nel 2017 e ha visto il ritorno dietro al microfono di Glynn Morgan (che ha sostituito Damian Wilson), seguito nel 2022 da "Dividing Lines".
