POISONED HESTIA

Poisoned Hestia is an independent alternative rock band from Germany, formed in 1991 under the moniker 13th Floor. Their musical style is influenced by late eighties sub-culture genres like gothic rock, heavy metal, post-punk, wave and industrial.

The band quickly achieved local underground fame with their intense live shows, presenting a mix of self-written material and cover songs. They regularly played sold-out club gigs and also regional festivals. Eventually, after a split and a short-lived reformation, in 1995 the band went on hiatus without ever having officially released any of their original material.

In 1995 band went on hiatus, but after almost 25 years they back in the original line-up and the band finally recorded and delivered their long-awaited debut album “Subtle Seduction” (2019). Then the band released the EP “Far Beyond” (2020) and several singles heralding the full album “All the Way Down” (2022). Just a few days ago, the German band presented to their fans with a dose of fresh music as EP “Further Down“.

New record was mixed and mastered by Timothé Baqué at Modern Nihilism Recordings (Humanity’s Last Breath, Grave Insanity) in Toulouse (France). EP “Further Down” was released on December 13, 2024 via Dawn Boulevard in digital form and is available for listening on all major streaming platforms.

Band members comments: “The new EP contains four tracks that are among the darkest and heaviest the band has ever released. We explore the dismal depths of the human soul and descend into the deepest corners of hell, where they unleash their vision of “Damnation Rock’n’Roll”. For 16 minutes there is little time to breathe as the band celebrates mixture of metal and hard rock, refined with some ingredients from gothic and industrial. Are you ready to party with the damned?“.
