”I´ve been asked if the name had to do with the leader of <a href="spotify:artist:3BM0EaYmkKWuPmmHFUTQHv" data-name="Kreator">Kreator</a> but, although we like the sound of the German legend, it´s not about him. It´s an easy name to remember; we´re not added to a specific label of music and can represent the distance that music can take you, ”explains vocalist Masken. Before debuting on stage, the musicians remained rehearsing and composing their songs for a whole year. ”We were aware that with the immediacy of the times we live in and with the huge amount of metal bands that appear daily, the quality had to come first”.
