TEARS OF HEL - A JOURNEY, A BIO (EXPLICIT)
It can be somewhat hard to explain what kind of music TEARS OF HEL makes. Heavily rooted in rock, the band never limits itself to specific genres, and musically explores a lot while remaining radio-friendly as much as possible in the process.
For what we are sure of, ToH was brought together by two near-Montreal born and longtime friends Alexandre Boismenu and Dominic Lamarre - once both in the now-dead band HAPPIER THAN YOU, who recorded more than 300 songs - plus the soundtrack for the indie-film ‘DECADENCE PSYCHOTIQUE’… , during their short existence, which is only a part of the experience they have now.
Now what exactly inspires a band like TEARS OF HEL? Bands like Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, The Beatles and Alice in chains of course, but it goes way beyond that, being hardcore fan of lesser-known (but amazingly good) Self, Akira Yamaoka, The Residents, Abandonned pools, Emilie Simon and much, much more…
What’s the experience behind TEARS OF HEL you ask? As mentioned before, they were both in the highly prolific HAPPIER THAN YOU, but Alexandre formed and fronted Rusty Chains, Karma Crisis, and even played in Japan as well.
Dominic was also very active. Aside from HTY, he created a solo/not-so-solo project SUPERMASSIVE QUAzAR, which turned out to be played around the world (and also available at a very resonable price on amazon.com, CDBABY and ITUNES, and even on Yahoo Music Japan) and got himself a few of Publishing deals.
So imagine all this experience brought together as a single band, an entity ready to rip your f*cking soul apart and spit down your throat and piss on your sofa while you’re watching.
