Some time in the frigid winter of 2003, two twisted minds, J. Traynor and B. Henderson, devised a plan for a musical vision quest into the depths of the ancient past. Thus, the band Minas Tirith was born. With uncompromising dark death metal, the band soon forged a self-released demo, entitled "Black Flames", and had received widespread acclaim from all who bore witness. However, soon Minas Tirith began taking on a new and even more abominable form. With an increased focus on Norse Mythology and Christian hypocrisy, Minas Tirith transformed into their present and permanent form, Helcaraxë! The reality of Helcaraxë moved into a new dimension, when in 2005, J. Traynor and B. Henderson made the decision to put their latest ideas to tape. After writing for many months, the band decided that another demo was not going to be sufficient. Instead, they made the decision to sequester themselves away in the basement abode of Christ Puncher Studios, and recorded a heavy-as-hell slab of dark viking death metal. The resulting album, "Triumph and Revenge", dedicated to the Norse gods, was released in February 2007 on Regimental Records. In the Spring of 2006, longtime heavy metal fanatic P. Henry joined the ranks of Helcaraxë on bass, lending his sounds of destruction to the forthcoming "No God To Save You" EP, due out later this year on Wolf's Moon Recordings! About the name: Helcaraxë (pronounced 'HelcarAKsay') is named for the grinding ice plains of JRR Tolkien's Silmarillion - one of the most important books in history. Please note, Helcaraxë is not a political band and holds no opinions on any of the controversial political topics that currently find their way into heavy metal and heathenism from all directions. Helcaraxë stands for death metal, and individuality, plain and simple. Hails!
