HERMH reissues demo for 30th anniversary!

The beginnings of the Białystok band HERMH date back to 1993.

In 1994, the band recorded and released their first demo “Oremus Peccatum (Refaim)“, and a year later another demo was released – “Crying Crowns Of Trees” (featuring Adam “Nergal” Darski). Both demos were included on the compilation “Echo” (1995). In 1996, “Taran” was released, the first studio album by the Białystok band. In the same year, the band signed a record contract with the renowned Polish label Pagan Records and in 1997 released the album “Angeldemon“, which was a big step forward in relation to previous productions. Unfortunately, in 1998 the band broke up, and vocalist Bart resumed his activity in 2003, with musicians from bands such as Abused Majesty and Asgaard joining the band.

After reactivation, the band led by Bartek Krysiuk released EPs “Before the Eden – Awaiting the Fire” (2004) and “After the Fire – Ashes” (200), DVD “The Spiritual Nation Born” (2008) and albums: “Eden’s Fire” (2006) and “Cold Blood Messiah” under the banner of the renowned label Mystic Production. In their work, the group refers to mythology and the history of vampirism and mysticism. During their activity, the band HERMH played many live shows, including with Vader, Behemoth, Asgaard, Closterkeller, Artrosis or Virgin Snatch and Blindead. In 2005, the band performed on the small stage of the prestigious Metalmania festival.

After the last concert performances in 2013, HERMH went into hibernation.

After 30 years, Polish label Via Nocturna has announced the re-release of the cult demo by Podlasie black metallers HERMH. “Oremus Peccatum (Refaim)” will be released as a 6-panel digipak CD and a strictly limited to 44 copies white cassette. The music for this release was re-mastered at Hertz Studio by the Wiesławski brothers in 2006. Diana Sawicka from What the Moon Brings is responsible for the new graphic design of the reissue. A occasional T-shirt is also available for sale. The premiere is scheduled for December 13, 2024. Orders can be placed in the label’s online store (https://tinyurl.com/oremus-peccatum)
