Biography
The history of Ukrainian band HELLION began in the spring 2005. The founders of the band were guitarist Alexey Pasko and drummer Oleg Talanov. After a few rehearsals they were joined by bassist Alexander Sitalo and soon after by guitarist Anton Pavlenko. Place of a vocalist was tested by several candidates & remained vacant for a long time, as a result Alexander Baev took place of vocalist. In this line-up, still unnamed band started rehearsals. In the course of creation the songs turned out that the musical material is a fusion of thrash, death and progressive metal, which corresponded to the different aspirations of musicians. After long name discussions guys stopped at HELLION . Chosen the name and prepared material - first demo, solemnly titled "Hellion", the band was ready to begin live concert performances at spring 2005.

Somewhere after that, the musicians decided to change the name to HELL: ON, to avoid confusion, note that the bands with that name already exist in the world at the moment. Based on the voting of the main metal-portal of the country Froster.org, HELL: ON recognized as the best metal band of 2007.
The winter of 2007-2008 - the period of starting work on new material. Of live performances are worth noting departure for international metal-fest "Black Winter Days" in St. Petersburg (Russia). The rest of the year the band dedicated for work on the second full-length album.

Fall 2009 – during the "Hell Damage Tour", the guitarist Anton Pavlenko left the band. At the end of the tour he was replaced by Anton Vorozhtsov, who became a full member of the band.
Together with a new guitarist the band began recording new material. In the spring of 2010 the network appeared EP "In the Shadow of Emptiness", which marked a new milestone in the life of the band. Since the release of Internet MCD, "Hells" managed to attend concerts in Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, parallel leading the work on a third album.
Meanwhile the growing popularity of the band began to attract interest from many labels. In the summer of 2011 debut album "Strong Enough" was re-released on Nocturnus Records (UA), with a new design (the design by Nurgeslag: ROTTING CHRIST, MOURNFUL GUST, FLYING .. etc.) and completed EP "Beyond the Fake", which was previously came out only as an internet release.

In 2014 the band started to work on the new album  “Once Upon A Chaos…”, and in the beginning of 2015 finished the recording sessions. This work is definitely a ground-breaking release for the band, and the most powerful work to date. Keeping their deep roots in Death Metal, the band decided to introduce some experimental features into their music via the use of some traditional instruments like sitar or goat-pipe, and they succeeded in this trial delivering to listeners a powerful and apocalyptic album! One has to mention also that guest guitar solo on the new album was performed by  Andreas Kisser (SEPULTURA).
