Artist Detailed Info: Lvmen

Lvmen is a Czech post-metal/post-hardcore band formed in 1995 in Prague and largely known for being an influence on several bands in the present-day post-hardcore scene. Featuring teased keyboards, brutal riffs, screamed/sung vocals, virtuoso drumming and voice-sampled sequences from 60s movies (mostly from the films of the prominent Czech director František Vláčil, which became the band's trademark), theirs was a brilliant, inspiring output '..blending the heaviness of Neurosis, the rhythmic math-metal of Isis, the violence of Swans and the plaintive whispering of Slint's Spiderland'. (Pitchfork, 2010).

They have released five studio albums and a compilation An Anthology of Previously Released Songs on Day After Records label.

Contrary to popular belief, the band didn't officially split up after Dáda's death, but ceased most activity for a long period, until the recording and release of "Mitgefangen Mitgehangen" in 2017, also resuming it's concert activity.

Last known lineup included:

Dáda - vocal, guitar
Husar - vocal, samples
Mirda - guitar
Hulo - bass guitar
Melnick - drums
