STROMMOUSSHELD was founded in June 1999. Since the very start they have drawn critics' attention with the intriguing combination of metal music and electronics (on stage using standard instruments, computers and live visuals).
After several demo tapes and lots of gigs played in Poland and abroad they signed a deal with Italian label Avantgarde Music in 2002. In April 2003 their debut album Behind the Curtain was released. The reviews were enthusiastic and the album was acclaimed Album of the Month in a couple of European music magazines. The band itself was voted Newcomer of the Year in Metal Hammer Readers' Poll. To promote the album Strommoussheld appeared at several prestigious festivals (e.g. Metalmania 2003, Brutal Assault 2003 in Czech Republic, they played as one of headliners at Italian Nihil Festival) and at Polish tour Dark Stars 2003. In 2004 their music was used in Teatr Slaski's adaptation of cult novel Trainspotting.
In October 2004 the band released the EP Halfdecadance (Metal Mind Records) and took a part in Samael's Reign of Light Tour 2004.
In Spring 2005 the band did their first headlining native tour Generation Avantgarde and two months later appeared at the Poland's Castle Party Open Air - the biggest dark independent festival in the Middle & Eastern Europe - playing together with their special quest CH District - Poland's best idm/ambient/industrial act.
In February 2009 StrommoussHeld took a part in HELLHOUNDS FEST TOUR with Tiamat and The 69 Eyes...
The band has played concerts with such bands as:
Samael, Saxon, Tiamat, Vader, The Exploited, Anathema, Opeth, Marduk, Immolation, Amon Amarth, Malevolent Creation, God Dethroned, Impaled Nazarene, Exhumed, Cephalic Carnage, Ephel Duath, Kataklysm, Hollenthon, Pungent Stench, The 69 Eyes, Flowing Tears and many more...

THE RETURN OF THE BAT
Specimen will bring their special brand of glam mayhem, The Batcave to London again.
After last year’s wildly-successful 25th anniversary Batcave event, The Batcave returns to its original spawning ground of London’s West End on Sunday July 19 for another night of blasphemy, lechery and blood.
Specimen (Fresh from a fantastic show at Leipzig’s Waves Gotik festival), the original Batcave instigators will headline the lurid frolics at the Embassy Club, (29 Old Burlington St, London W1S3AP) Also on the bill are original Batcavers Sexbeat, with DJs Hamish and Cavey Nick, cavorting from decks to decadence with the usual brutal, trouser-dropping surprises & suitably confronting & barbaric entertainment.
The 2009 Batcave will feature installations from exciting new artists of the ‘Dark London Underground’ and visuals from the upcoming ‘Welcome To The Batcave’ book, along with this year’s bitcrushed message from the creature in the Batcave Pram. All set in a spooky Bladerunner environment!
So dress to kill … prepare for a thrill & Expect the unexpected!
The Batcave will be open from 10pm till 3am. Tickets £15 available from www.ticketweb.co.uk and Resurrection Records.
