The band was formed in 2023 by Nikolai and Laureana and was originally called HellCirkus. The band was largely inactive in 2023, producing only a rough demo of “Isolation” which was very different from it’s “Freedom Is Slavery” version. It’s sound was originally very different, and they didn’t settle on how to sound until May 2024 in which they made a demo for “War” setting them on a path to release their first studio album “Freedom is Slavery”.
History[edit]
Origins[edit]
Helltrench was created on the fifth of March 2023, under the name of HellCirkus in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
by Nikolai and Laureana Trinchero with Nikolai on vocals and Laureana on Drums, eventually Nikolai would also take on duties as the guitarst of the band. Later on bassist Zeca Mattos, would briefly join the band however would leave on a mutual agreement with the band, he never played with the band as they were not very active in this period, and only really became active in 2024. After his departure Keyboardist/Backing vocalist Rafael Miranda who was a friend of Nikolai’s joined the band on May 2023, staying with those two roles until April 2024 being disposed of keyboard duties as the band felt it no longer fit the band’s sound, eventually taking an absence from Helltrench, however he would return on the fifth of May 2024, after talks with the band and deciding to remain a part of it. Miranda would later on take the role of percussionist and backing vocals. Rafael would later quit the band in the end of May 2024, however he would return in June 2024 this time, for good. Helltrench was originally called HellCirkus but changed it’s name due to it sounding too similar to another band’s name, it was then renamed to Forest of Hell due to Rio’s nature and violence, however the name was not one word and thus not preffered by all and eventually the band settled for the name Helltrench. That name came up on the spot by Vocalist/Guitarist Nikolai Trinchero.
HellCirkus (Early days)[edit]
The first ever Helltrench album, would never come to be. It beared the original name for the band and had a completely different sound than Helltrench has today. The band was largely inactive during this period. A couple songs were written, many of which would not end up in Freedom is Slavery.
Isolation and inactivity (2023-2023)[edit]
The demo for Isolation was the band’s first song and went through several variations with the first being very different from the demo version, which was also relatively different from it’s studio album version. It featured Nikolai Trinchero on vocals and guitars with Laureana Trinchero on drums. It did not feature Rafael or Zeca and had no bass or percussion however it would be a step forward for the band, as it would be the first ever song to be made by Helltrench. After Isolation the band went inactive, while not on a hiatus everything would be stalled.
Freedom is Slavery, War and resurgence (2023-present)[edit]
Freedom is Slavery is Helltrench’s first full length album, it features both original members with the addition of Percussionist/Backing Vocalist Rafael Miranda which during the album’s early production would join the band in May 2023, staying with them for a year until deciding to quit. However returning in June 2024, however he was largerly inactive in 2023 and 2024 only really being a part of the band upon his definitive return in June 2024. The album focuses on experiences by the lead song writer Nikolai and overall on the image of society as viewed on by the band, and war. The band would go inactive, however they would return in May 2024, by recording War which according to Vocalist/Guitarist Nikolai is his favorite song on the album. After the recording of that song, the band started recording the full album. Many song lyrics would be written during the inactive period, however most songs would be rewritten, meaning that the lyrics would change a bit, one example would be Isolation. There are however, many songs that were written after "War" such as "Cost" and "Burn". The title track "Freedom is Slavery" was originally written in 2023, however it was never finalized, for the full recording of the album the song was completely re-written to match the atmosphere that the band was now going for and to overall improve on its previous rendition.
Influences[edit]
The band cites Slipknot, Sepultura, Angra, The Offspring, Millencollin, Iron Maiden, Machine Head, Megadeth and Helloween as notable influences
