Biography
Hellripper is a Scottish project led by James McBain, launched in 2014 in Aberdeen. It revives the spirit of 1980s speed metal, black metal and thrash, in a raw, fast and gleeful style inherited from Venom and Motörhead. Albums like The Affair of the Poisons earned it wide recognition. Its old-school energy and fire make it a favourite of the speed/black metal scene.
