Heretix: Difference between revisions

Heretix was formed in 1986, originally consisting of members Ray Lemieux, Brian Hill, Eric Hill, and Marvin Huffman. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Heretix was more focused on a hair/glam metal sound, releasing two albums and one EP before the arrival of [[Mikey Welsh]]. Mikey went on to replace Eric Hill in [[1993]] for the album ''[[The Adventures of Super Devil]]'', joining the band on an East Coast tour of the United States that same year.<ref>Heretix.

The band continued touring up until June of 1995. Shortly after the end of the band's initial touring career, the band members had started to lose interest with each other, leading the group to fall apart and Mikey to go on to form [[Jocobono]] later in 1995.<ref>"Its all about Mikey Welsh!", http://www.geocities.ws/jonaswelsh/mikeybio.html</ref> The band started a 19 year hiatus, only returning to play a reunion show sometime in [[1996]].<ref>Heretix.
