Martelo Negro

Band,
Rock

Martelo Negro's sacrilegious sound was founded in 2006 by The Beyonder, with the name Black Hammer. The band released the EP "Winds of Carrion" in 2007, and in 2009 the singles "Hierofante em Chamas", "Sob os Cascos de Satã", and "Bela Lugosi Is Dead, Buried and Forgotten", as a one man project. Also in 2009, the band's name was changed to The Beyonder's Portuguese mother tongue, following a suggestion from Belathauzer, a fellow metal brother. In early 2010, The Beyonder puts this plan into practice, but he also added something more to the mix ... the band was no longer a "one-man project", and became an lascivious and devastating heavyweight quartet. For this early stage Melkor, Bwzwys, and Asmodeus were invited to join ranks with The Beyonder. During this time, the band rehearses thoroughly in order to be able to build their evil sounds... However, during Christmas 2010, Asmodeus left the band due to personal reasons, and his position was occupied by the nefarious Thamuz (aka Wolfgang). With this new lineup in 2011, the band leaves for a series of infamous concerts in the Portuguese territory, and in late 2011 their first full-length, "Sortilégio dos Mortos", is released, setting the pace for a 2012 bathed in blood! In late 2012 Bwzwys Narconomikon left the band due to irrevocable differences, being replaced by the infamous d-beat assassin Arrno Maalm (Filii Nigrantium Infernalium, Namek, Ironsword, Atentado) In early 2013 the band started recording “Equinócio Espectral”, the first part of the “Antimatéria” trilogy, being the effort of a renewed line up at its full force and blasphemous might. The new album release is scheduled for early 2014, being this the perfect timing for the band to endeavor into a new promotional cycle across Portugal, defiling graves, whorehouses and churches with the single purpose of spreading the words of the horned Jesus, the one who has always lurked beneath…
