Heretoir

Heretoir is a german post metal band - a band that has always stood for pure emotion. The pain of modern life transformed into music.

With their fourth full-length “Solastalgia” that entered the German official album charts ranking at #54, the German purveyors of soaring post metal work their way to their innermost core and deliver what is easily their most vulnerable and accessible record to date. Solastalgia describes the grief over the loss of the natural world and the very existence of such a term brutally exposes our alienation from this planet. While some of the albums’ songs deal with environmental issues, others focus on personal feelings and the challenges of human existence in a rapidly changing world. And yet the desperate beauty of “Solastalgia” proves to be an unlikely source of comfort.

Heretoir have previously toured Europe, Asia and Latin America and played alongside acts like Killswitch Engage, Alcest or Kalmah and can’t wait to hit the road again in support of their new album. After exploring their dark and grim side on “Nightsphere”, their style is now going into a slightly different direction: The songs of “Solastalgia” cover a wide range from Modern Metal to Black Metal to Post Rock to even Screamo. Whatever you want to call it: essentially, this is pure melancholy and a spark of hope in utter darkness.
