Heaven Shall Burn was formed in autumn of 1996, under the name ‘Consense’. With the recording of their second demo in early 1997 the band changed their name to ‘Heaven Shall Burn’. After working on their material for some time, the first full length CD, ‘Asunder’, was released in April 2000. Also, a label was found that distributed their work ouside of Europe.
Many people ask Heaven Shall Burn why they chose their name, but the reason is actually far away from the first picture people come up with. There is a Marduk-album called “Heaven Shall Burn… When We Are Gathered”. So Heaven Shall Burn adopted the words. In an interview with the band at decoymusic.com, the band said: “It’s not that we’re huge Marduk fans, but we liked the name. It sounds a bit provoking and so people ask us again and again for the meaning behind our name. It has been like that since the very beginning. We use the term “heaven” as a metaphor for some kind of a fake paradise that people create in their heads. Some people close their eyes and don’t see the truth surrounding them. So this kind of fake heaven should burn. Some people might think that our name is an anti-religious statement, but it isn’t.”
