Story of HER NAME IN BLOOD

Formed in Japan in 2007, HER NAME IN BLOOD was a formidable force within the international heavy music landscape, bridging the gap between searing metalcore, guttural deathcore, and the kinetic energy of modern J-rock. Over a relentless 14-year career, the band distinguished itself in the East Asian underground circuit with an uncompromising sonic assault characterized by punishing breakdowns, thrash-infused riffing, and guttural vocal dynamism. They announced their arrival with their explosive 2010 full-length debut, DECADENCE, which immediately established them as vital contenders in the regional and global extreme metal movement.

Throughout the following decade, the outfit honed a physically imposing sound that paired sheer sonic violence with infectious, groove-heavy anthems. Their self-titled 2014 release broadened their creative scope and set the stage for a prolific run of studio efforts, including 2015`s BEAST MODE and the critically celebrated 2016 album BAKEMONO. By the time they unleashed POWER in 2018, the quintet had fully realized their signature aesthetic, combining technical precision with an arena-ready punch that translated into ferocious, sweat-drenched live performances across festival stages and club circuits alike.

HER NAME IN BLOOD officially disbanded on July 4, 2021, concluding an influential chapter that left an indelible mark on Japan`s heavy music history. While their tenure ended after more than a decade of sonic devastation, the band cultivated a fiercely dedicated cult following both at home and abroad. Today, their catalog remains an enduring benchmark for Japanese extreme metal, celebrated for its raw power, relentless momentum, and fierce originality.
