Zerohour formed in Germany in 1989, a heavy metal band that put out their debut album 'Dark Deceiver' the following year. The title track became their most recognizable song, with its mix of aggression and melody. The original lineup included Jörg Michael on vocals, Thomas 'Tom' Angelripper on bass, Joachim 'Pimmel' Peters on drums, and Uwe 'Ulle' Richter on lead guitar.
They released several albums through the 1990s and 2000s, including 'Reload' in 1992, 'Global Player' in 1994, and 'The Truth' in 2002. The band's lineup changed over time, with founding members Peters and Richter eventually departing.
In the early 1990s, Zerohour faced some criticism for perceived political associations, which they denied. They continued recording and performing, with later albums like 'Machina Infernalis' in 2010 and 'Chapter XIII' in 2014.
