Nemhain

Nemhain are a dark n dirty Rock n Roll band hailing from the filthy back streets of Hackney, London. Since their formation in early 2006 they've exploded onto the scene like an aural holocaust! Nemhain features - Amber Erlandsson - Vox (Former stage performer with Motorhead/COF/Godhead) Lakis - Guitar (Area 54/Love & Bullets) Lisa Witch - Bass & Vox Sam Astley - Guitar Adrian "Swede" Erlandsson - Drums (former ATG/The Haunted/COF) With the release of their first EP 'Blood runs free' , they have been taking audiences around the country by storm and spreading the Rock n' Roll plague all over the world. They were voted KBY band of the month by Rocksound Magazine, due to their intense live performance at The Barfly. This also earned them their first major support slot with Aussie Rock legends - Rose Tattoo at London's Scala. They were also asked by KEG Rocks to contribute a track to The Misfits 30th Anniversary tribute album, 'Anniversary of Brutality' and went for the jugular with a crushing rendition of the classic 'Die, die, my darling'. 2007 saw Nemhain touring throughout the UK and Netherlands with a second support to Rose Tattoo & Municipal Waste, and playing festivals with such Rock n' roll reprobates as In Flames, Arch Enemy, Twisted Sister and Saxon at Hard Rock Hell & the mighty Bloodstock. In early 2008, they played showcase gigs in LA, at The Joint and the Cat Club, during the NAMM convention, and since then have been working on their first full-length album. As of April 2008, they have completed recording of the album at Gothenburg's Studio Fredman. AUG 2009 - Tiefdruck Musik Signs Nemhain! The bands debut album ‘From The Ashes’ will be released worldwide on January 22nd of 2010, and will be available at that date in stores and as digital downloads. "With whiskey in our veins, fire in our hearts and fully armed with the weapons of Rock n roll, we take no prisoners with our own lethal injection of dark and dirty, blues stained punk rock mayhem!" --------------------------------------- A preoccupation with the down and dirty rock tropes of good times, bad girls and hard liquor, as a soundtrack to our very own highway to hell this debut full-length does the job nicely 7/10 ROCKSOUND MAGAZINE We cant say what the Amber & Adrian get up to in the privacy of their own home but if what they get up to in the studio is anything to go by then ‘come dine with me’ chez Erlandsson would feature graphic images, whiskey & spilled blood earning it ratings by the score & a post-watershed airing schedule! TERRORIZER MAGAZINE Imagine a band that harnessed the raw, raging aggression of early distillers, the dark flamboyant tones of the Misfits, infectious rock n roll riffs. The snarling creature that results is London 5 piece Nemhain. With powerful debut album ‘From the ashes’ released Nemhain is a name you’ll be hearing a lot more of in 2010. BIG CHEESE MAGAZINE You will not be disappointed, musically or optically! We say thumbs up to ‘From the ashes’ which gives us a chance to catch our breaths as the tracks push forward brutally MARQUIS MAGAZINE “If every track of the forthcoming album is so catchy and cool like those which are on that EP, it will only be a matter of time till this band is fully established in the country.” ROCK HARD GERMANY on the EP "From The Ashes“ (Demo Of The Month) "Nemhain is possibly one of the hottest bands on the horizon and I'm not just talking about the music. Check out their websites and you'll see why. But pin-up status aside, the band has the chops to make a serious bid for your CD player. Their music is a blend of punky rock and metal that is slightly raw but energetic. In fact the unbridled enthusiasm of the band on cuts like "Heroin Child" and "Speed Queen" is positively adrenaline pumping" MORLEY SEAVER - ANTI MUSIC "Nemhain are going to be huge. It's as clear as that. They're a force to be reckoned with, taking their Rock n Roll Shenanigans to new levels with an unmistakable animalistic tone for alcohol abuse, live gigs and close up fan interaction.... These guys are infecting you with their Rock n Roll tunes, fiendishly good looks and Jack Daniel's inspired charm. Welcome to the party world of Nemhain!" DEVOLUTION MAGAZINE Nemhain are endorsed by & use and abuse - Fernandes guitars, Orange Amps, Pearl Drums, Vic Firth Sticks and Sabian Cymbals. Blues stained punk rock doom from Murder Mile
