Herein After was formed in 2005 out of the ashes of "Sheol" and "Barbed Wire Soul." Both Jim and Joe played together in the death metal band Sheol through out the early to late ninties with much underground success and shared the stage with bands such as Immolation, Crisis, Monstrosity, Acid Bath, and Broken Hope. Sheol broke up in 2001 and Joe resurfaced in 2003 with Barbed Wire Soul.
In 2005, Jim started "Herein After" as a way to release some new music and called upon Joe to join in the band and help in the recording process. To fill in the drummer position, Jim called an old friend and first bandmate from the early high school days, Geoff LaPenta (also known as Hippie). Geoff was the founding member of the North Carolina based band, Torture Cell, and now plays in Cynonyte. He was the perfect candidate to record the drum tracks.
We have finally settled on a line up and have added Jon Gurnari on guitar and Steve Devita on the drums .
We are currently working on new material and hope to start playing out shortly. ..
