About Me

Honey For Christ are a Northern Ireland based pure heavy metal band formed through obsession with metal music and all that it stands for. The band refuse to hold back on musical influences and only play what they want to hear. Emotionally charged with passion and energy this latest EP brings 5 tracks of the darkest music the band has written.The Darkest Pinnacle of Light was recorded in Cottage Studios in Northern Ireland, produced, recorded and mixed by the band themselves to ensure proper representation of the music and finally mastered at studioFeRoX.Honey For Christ were formed in November 1998 by 5 friends with a passion for music. All categories of metal were forgotten and it was agreed that no member would hold back any influence, and this created the sound of Honey for Christ.From March 1999 to 2002 the band released 3 successful demos; April of 1999 the debut "Long Way Down & Rising" was recorded on 4 track. The demo was heavily distributed and achieved very good press in both fanzines and magazines The events of 2000 led to the creation of a self financed EP, entitled "The Art of Self Abuse & Soul Erosion." In June 2002 the band were taken into a professional studio to capture the power and intensity that the music deserves; the outcome was "Forging Iron Will." Again critically acclaimed by fanzines and mainstream magazines the disc was a great success, and was featured as album of the month by metalUK.2005 saw HFC with a new line up, Andy taking on the additional role of vocals due to Jasons departure earlier in the year. Undeterred the trio self financed and self produced 5 of the darkest tracks the band have written. This evolution created "The Darkest Pinnacle of Light"This is Honey For Christ "100% raw, unclean, uncut hard & honest heavy fucking metal!!!"
