Hetroertzen was formed in the year 1997 in southern Chile by Frater D. as a one man solo project. Two years later, in September 1999, Åskväder joined the band as a guitarist. On their first ten years of existence, a couple of albums were recorded and a handful of gigs were performed in their homeland Chile. Various line-up changes occurred as well. The group had a brief hiatus for various reasons, but in 2009 after resurfacing in Sweden and the city of Västerås, Hetroertzens first proclaimed full length album ‘Exaltation of Wisdom’, was recorded at the bands own studio. The line-up was then Frater D. on drums, bass and vocals and Åskväder on guitars. ‘Exaltation of Wisdom’ was firstly released on LP by Lamech Records and it was limited to 500 blood-numbered copies. In November 2011 the group performed ‘Exaltation of Wisdom’ in its entirety in their most important performance thus far; a rather special event called ‘Arosian Black Mass’, where the band received highly positive critique from attendants. The band had the help from Kfzl on bass and Garghuf on drums. After their live debut at ‘Arosian Black Mass’, Anubis gets involved in the band as guitarist. Later on, the band did some line-up changes, by adding M. as live bassist, and Lazarus as live drummer. With this line up the band had further successful performances between 2012 to 2013. In 2012, after 3 years without recording, Frater D., Åskväder and An. went on to record material for what would be used for a split album together with Norwegian devotees; Dødsengel. The split, released 1,5 year later, gained much regard in terms of acceptance from the audience from all around the world, as well as in terms of sales and in October 2013 the band went out on their first ever tour, alongside Troll and Dødheimsgard. The tour was a great success for the band and they won over countless new fans from around Europe. During 2014 HETROERTZEN recorded material for a new full length album which will allow them to stretch the boundaries of their already unique sound.

‘Ain Soph Aur’ will be released in December 2014 by the alliance Lamech Records, Terratur Possessions and Amor Fati Productions.
