Hellcrash are an Italian Speed / Heavy Metal [1] [2] band formed in Santa Margherita Ligure (in the province of Genoa) in 2013.

History

[edit]

The group was formed in 2013 by the initiative of singer/guitarist Hellraiser and bassist Skullcrusher [3]. In the summer of the same year, the band recorded their first self-produced demo, Ready to Burn in Hell [4] [5] . In 2015 a split was released together with the Florentine band Forces [6] [7] under the Swiss label Red Wine Rites Records, while a few months later a second demo, Heavy Metal Inferno, recorded with the new drummer Nightkiller [8] ,was published [9]. During these years, the band began to perform live, playing their own gigs and participating in various festivals [10] [11] [12] [13] . On February 6, 2021, Hellcrash released their first album, Krvcifix Invertör, under Red Wine Rites Records [14] [15] [16] . In August, the band signed a contract with the German label Dying Victims Productions, which subsequently released the vinyl edition of the first album [17] [18] . Hellcrash continue to perform as headliners and at festivals, both in Italy and internationally [19] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] .

In 2022, the band released a new split with the Sicilian band Bunker 66, entitled Hell & Sulphur and produced once again by Dying Victims Productions [26] [27] [28] .

The second album, Demonic Assassinatiön, was released in 2023, under the same label[29] [30] [31] [32] . The new drummer Evilbringer took over from Nightkiller shortly after the album's release. [33] [34] The new studio work received positive acclaim [35] and achieved good sales [36] . In October, Hellcrash embarked on the Europe Assassinatiön Tour, a series of concerts across major European markets [37] [38] .

The following year, after some shows in Germany and Italy [39], the band released the single Possessed, a re-recording of a song featured in the first demo[40] [41] [42] .
