Editor's note

Heaven Shall Burn's German metal fights fascism.

A German metal band whose thrash and hardcore sound carries political weight.

For their sound, try 'Extermination Order'. For their stance, 'The Weapon They Fear' says it plain.

Heaven Shall Burn's music isn't just heavy; it's pointed. Songs like 'Extermination Order' and 'The Weapon They Fear' channel a mix of thrash, death metal, and hardcore into themes of injustice and anti-fascism. They've kept that intensity consistent since forming in 1996, with albums like 'Veto' and 'Of Truth and Sacrifice' pushing the same message.

The band formed in Germany in 1996 with a lineup that's stayed mostly intact. Their sound, influenced by Napalm Death and Slayer, developed its own weight across albums from 'Veto' to 'Of Truth and Sacrifice'. The political themes in tracks like 'Übermacht' and 'Children Of a Lesser God' have been a constant thread.

Archive material and source history

Heaven Shall Burn formed in Germany in 1996, playing a mix of thrash, death metal, and hardcore. Their lineup has stayed mostly the same, with Markus Bischoff on vocals, Maik Weichert and Eric Bischoff on guitars, Alexander Dietz on bass, and Christian Bass on drums. They've cited influences like Napalm Death and Slayer, but their sound developed its own weight over time.

Their albums, including 'Veto' from 2013, 'Wanderer' from 2016, and 'Of Truth and Sacrifice' from 2020, often deal with political themes like injustice and fighting fascism. Songs like 'Given in Death' and 'The Weapon They Fear' carry that intensity.

They've never been shy about their stance. The song 'Übermacht' directly addresses right-wing extremism, and tracks like 'The Sorrows Of Victory' and 'Children Of a Lesser God' fit into that same vein. It's not just background noise for them; the lyrics and the music push in the same direction.
