Hibria

Hibria's first demo tape was titled "Metal Heart" and was released in 1997, two months after the arrival of singer Iuri Sanson. It was composed under the influence of bands such as Iron Maiden, Metallica, Helloween, Judas Priest, Megadeth, Racer-x, Manowar and Dream Theater. After the good results of the concerts and the demo tape in the band's hometown (Porto Alegre, Brazil), Hibria decided to spread their work across Europe. The demo was performed at Metal concerts and received enthusiastic reviews in zines and magazines. In August 1999, the band released the demo CD "Against The Faceless" with three new songs, continuing to spread their work worldwide. Hibria demonstrated its musical evolution, resulting from the stability of the band's line-up since 1997.
