Sanhedrin was originally formed by Reece Holloway & Parmahn Azad, two like-minded individuals who wanted to explore their interests in Black & Death Metal. The group was formed in early 2009 in Huddersfield, England.

Initially Reece (Vocals & Keyboards) & Parmahn (Guitar, Bass & Drums) shared musical ideas which became the three songs featured on the first Sanhedrin Demo. This early work was recorded in Parmahn’s flat using basic equipment and was simply used to showcase the early material.

John Houghton and Dan Oldcorn (Merciless Terror) were then recruited into the band on guitars and bass respectively. The band soon entered the recording studio to record their 2009 Demo, the first Sanhedrin material to feature a full line up of instrumentalists.

After several live performances, Dan left the band in late 2009 based on musical differences and eventually joined death-thrashers ‘Merciless Terror’. Long-time friend of the band Tom Blakemore was brought in on bass guitar.

With Tom now on bass, the band played several more live performances before deciding it was time to start the writing and recording process for the band’s debut full-length album.

An incredibly lengthy home production effort then ensued as the band put some finishing touches on the recording phase, and after several months of mixing and mastering the band is now ready to unleash their full-length debut album ‘Salvation Through Sin’ onto the metal masses!

SALVATION THROUGH SIN will be self-released on Monday 29th November!
