| Helltrain > Albums & Lyrics |

Helltrain was founded in 2002 by Pierre Törnkvist - vocals & bass. The band immediately found recognition for their original sound, mixing their previous experiences in the heavier genres like death-, thrash- & black metal with arrangements and sounds from rock n roll & punk rock music. The unique use of a Hammond organ got people to lend an ear or two. We could quote Jimmy Pop of the Bloodhound Gang on the sound:
“It’s like Misfits, but with an attitude!�
The vocals from front man Pierre would probably scare the shit out of any Misfits fan...
The band recorded three demo songs, “Route 666�, “Rot n roll� and “Helltrain�. It was only necessary to send it to one record label to get the damn deal done. Nuclear Blast signed the band immediately & Helltrain entered the studio to record the debut album “Route 666�.
The demo was later released as “The 666 ep� (limited edition 500 copies) by Swedish underground label Heathendoom Music.
Requests to release “Route 666� on license have been verified from major labels in both Japan and the USA.
Weeks before www.mp3.com closed down the band was on 6th place in the alternative charts.
