By the beginning of 2000 Hematoma was formed. The first live performance was in March' 2001 for a few friends in a squash field..
The band began by playing live lots of covers, but after a few dates they focused on creating their own sound (originals).
On October'2003 Hematoma releases the first EP 'TILL THE END including three tracks ('Sweet Remain', 'Stone In My Boot' and 'Left To Die'), recorded and produced by the band itself.
During the promotion of this first MCD the band performed live throughout Portugal.
Some of the dates: 'Outubro Negro' (2003) at FNAC Chiado, 'Fundo Metal Fest' (2004), 'Metalflame' (2004) and more recently RTP1's 'SMS' program (2005).
Through the years, from the original line-up, there were several changes of the bass player, until the summer of 2005, with the entrance of Bruno Sousa.
On March'2005 Hematoma recorded five more songs at Floyd Studios for the "FOR YOURS WE WAIT" (Enhanced CD also including a live video and other extras). This work was mixed by Paulo Abelho at OCV Musika Studios and mastered by Tommy Newton (Ger).
The Album was released on the 25th November of 2005, distributed in Portugal by Musicactiva.
About a week before the release date, the first Hematomas videoclip (IV Tomb) is presented to the public on the 'Hypertenso' program/Sic Radical.
The band is now promoting 'For Yours We wait'..
