The advanced, genre-bending metallic element act Hollenthon is for the most part the wreak of Pungent Stench frontman Martin Schirenc, world Health Organization plays guitar, bass part, and keyboards, and also handles vocal and production duties for the band. Their music mixes elements of black and death metal together with synthesized string sections and choirs, ethnic/folk melodies, movie soundtrack influences, and more than to create an unusual, however heroic and large sound. The mind for Hollenthon stretches gage to 1994, at which time Schirenc appeared on an Austrian sinister metallic element compiling under the name Vuzem. It took several more long time for him to put together his number one full-length album, which he did with the avail of young drummer Mike Groeger. Released under the Hollenthon banner and entitled Domus Mundi, it finally came verboten in 1999 on France's Napalm Records and standard rant reviews across Europe and elsewhere in the underground metal community, simply it wasn't available in the U.S. until late 2000. The second Hollenthon release, With Vilest of Worms to Dwell, followed in 2001, as well on Napalm Records.
