HEXEREI
Raw black meal disease Hexerei was formed in the forlorn rural areas of nightside Finland in 2017 by three unnamed and deranged maniacs who set out to create ancient aural gateways to depths of madness and Hell. After two demonstrational self-released stabs of live captured black metal sorcery (the “Aural Abyss” 2018 demo and the ”Oath” demo from 2019) and countless hours of contemplating the forces of the Infernal planes and torments of flesh, a full-grown abomination came forth; a necromantical mockery of life from the witches' black cauldron called ”Ancient Evil Spirits”, embodying four venom dripping evil spells ridden with disease, intoxicated morbid visions through the eyes of possessed prophets of the most hideous of realms. A world of everlasting majestic terror, revelations howled in the shadow of the horns and the force of evil light, forever rejoicing the glorious opening of HELL! ”Ancient Evil Spirits” saw its wretched nativity in early 2022 through Sentient Ruin, acclaimed for its epic songs and complex composition, as well as for its uncompromising atavistically raw sound and its refusal to abide to any familiar production standard. As a non-touring or live act, the trio then went dormant, only apparently, to quietly delve into the creation of its successor. Such successor was then completed in 2024 and again ritualized for public unleashing in 2025 by Sentient Ruin. Titled “Realms…..”, this abominable successor found the band once again regressing further into the confinement of their own insane sound populated by demons, spirits and all kinds of horrendous hell-crawling entities, and swaying further way from any concept of familiarity with music, consigning to the masses a mangled, gnarled, and cryptic disfigurement of blown out and pestilent black metal, once again winding itself across an immense canvas of long, abysmal invocations.
