March 2013 - A few months ago Faethom revealed a picture of one of the main characters from the upcoming album currently
untitled.
The new concept album will also be based on a horror story
written by Mariela Muerte and it's a tragically horrific one filled
with injustice, violence, rage, vengeance and death.
It is set in a small, desolate Bolivian town from which the
character in the picture hails, she is known posthumously
as: LA FIERA. Watch out, for this vengeful cholita because
she means business!
Also Faethom just released a new song "Héroes de las Minas"
through Revebnation and YouTube. Although, in the past some
of Faethom's lyrics included some segments in Spanish such
as "Thou Shall Follow" in the first album "In the Name of the
Father,the Son, and the Unholy", this is marked as the first song
fully inSpanish and a bit of Quechua about "El Tio" and
the miners in Bolivia.
"In the mines of highland Bolivia, "El Tío" is the familiar name for the
spirit owner of the mountain, who is also known as Huari or Supay.
He is closely related to similar figures found in mines in Peru called
"muqui". The words "El Tío" are Spanish for "the uncle" and evince
the relationship of patronage that the miners have with the spirit.
He is associated with pre-Hispanic huacas as well as the
Christian Devil and is a central figure in the ritual life of Bolivian
mining communities. An icon of the Tío is situated in each mineshaft
to receive sacrificial offerings of alcohol, coca leaf, cigarettes, llama
blood and other ritual items from the miners in return for his goodwill
and his guarantee of good health and good fortune in the mines."

April 2014 - Faethom played some great shows through the first quarter of 2014 and the band will have the honor to open for yet
another great Metal band, the legendary Canadian band Anvil on April 8th in Fort Lauderdale, the second date of their US Tour.
Faethom's "Heroes de las Minas" Live (Opening for Morbid Angel)
The band had the pleasure to be part of some great events from December '13 through the first quarter of 2014. Some of the
highlights were opening for Morbid Angel, a band that has inspired them for many years. Another highlight was A Tribute to
Motörhead where Faethom performed two covers, "The Hammer" and "Don't Need Religion".
The band also had the pleasure to travel to perform in Tampa twice this year, first in February for the Anti-Valentine's Massacre
Fest and then in March for the "Hellgore Fest" which was right on Mariela Muerte's birthday and included some outstanding Death
and Black Metal bands from all across Florida. Also on April 5th they played a show with Nakhiel from Jacksonville and Ancestor
from Cuba, event that had a very unique atmosphere because of the display of musical diversity within the Black Metal genre by the
three bands.

October 2014 – The band has been in recording mode for a few months and the new songs will be melting your brains very
soon. This is a complete DIY production from recording to mixing and because of the weather conditions in South Florida and not
having air conditioning at the studio the artistic aggression was increased by a few notches. Luckily, the members of Faethom
made it through the summer alive! The band will be searching for the ideal sound engineer to do the mastering after all the
recording, editing and mixing is complete; because you can never underestimate a fresh set of professional ears, even if working
with a constrained budget.

As difficult as it can be, the band found a way to play three important shows while the recording sessions were taking place and
drummer Hermes had to use his back up drum set for the live experience to avoid moving the laborious microphone setup at the
recording warehouse (A.K.A. Incafierno Studios).
Faethom had the pleasure to open the show and share the stage with Agalloch on their "Serpens In Culmination" tour date at The
Orpheum in Tampa along with Vex from Texas. It was a great experience filled with musician camaraderie and the band thanks both
the owner of the venue and the booking agent for the invitation and great hospitality.
The band also played two great festivals at Churchill’s Pub in Miami, first on August 2nd at the third annual Death to Miami Fest
sharing the bill with some great Metal bands from all across Florida and also October 18th at the second annual Black Kvlt Fest
sharing the stage with Colombian/Texan Black Metal band Thy Antichrist and other great Blackened bands from all across Florida
and beyond.

November 2014 - MUSIC VIDEO PREMIERE: This month Faethom revealed the "Thou Shall Follow" music video, directed and
edited by talented artist, Daniel Jackson (who does a cameo appearance in the video as Satan!). This is a work of months! It's
been a long journey and both the band and the director hope that you all think it was worth the wait. This video release couldn't
have been at a more perfect time too. In a month like this, three years ago, Faethom released their debut album "In the Name of the
Father, the Son, and the Unholy." To honor this event as well as the video, the band re-recorded "Thou Shall Follow" with the current
lineup - Mariela (vocals/keyboards), David (guitar), Hermes (drums), and Ken (bass). Mixed and Mastered by guitarist, David. You
can download the track for free at the link below. It's the band's gift to you for all the amazing support! Download the track for FREE

December 2015 - Recording sessions for the new album were completed in October, mixing began in November, and early next year
Mastering will be in the hands of Soundlodge Studios based in the northern "Moorlands" of Germany with sound engineer Jörg Uken
who also plays drums with speed metal german band Stormwarrior. Even though the main focus this past year was recording the
album, the band took the time to play a few shows next to some great local and international bands, such as Ulcer, Mindscar, Made
of Metal, Killing Addiction, Thrash or Die, Vattnet Viskar, as well as Norwegian black metal band 1349 and American death/black
metal band ACHERON.

Unfortunately Faethom's bassist, Ken Hayward, had to move to Seattle, WA shortly after recording all of the bass lines for the new
album and was only be able to play a couple more shows with the band after his move to the west coast. Joel Kaos from
ANCESTOR temporarily joined Faethom on bass in order to fulfill previous gig commitments. The band thanks Ken for all of his
hard work, both in the studio and live, as well as Joel for covering the spot. Joel ended up moving to Las Vegas, NV and the band
is currently looking for a permanent bassist. The band wishes both Ken and Joel the best of luck in their new endeavors.

January 2016 - The band is glad to announce that the search for a bassist has come to
an end. A few months ago bassist Ken moved to Seattle and it was a really tough time
for the band. Joel, from Cuban Black Metal band Ancestor, step in for a few gigs but after
a while he also moved to the west coast, and chose the city of sin, Las Vegas. Luck was
obviously not on the band's side but they carried on. The band asked the bassist Marcel
Salas from Cyst to help out for a couple of shows and he graciously agreed. The
rehearsals with Marcel went very well and one chilly night, Mariela, David, and Hermes
formed a circle around him and with an evil gleam in their eyes they chanted: "Marcel,
join us, JOIN US!" And, with a gleam in his eyes even more evil than theirs he said:
"Yes!" So, Marcel is now officially Faethom's new bassist. He played his first show with
the band paying homage to Lemmy of Motörhead who had left this world a few weeks
before. Marcel will be part of Faethom's upcoming tour with Solstice in the Summer.

April 2016 - The band released the cover artwork for their upcoming album Fury Of The Scorned Witch. This will be the band's
2nd full-length album and will feature 18 hellish tracks. This record will be a horror concept album about a fictional Bolivian
mining town where the miners toil and suffer relentlessly under the watchful eye of "El Tio" (the demonic entity that guards the
mines).
With an infernal cast of characters - a scorned, vengeful cholita,
a violent, murderous miner, a powerful, diabolical witch, a pious,
holier-than-thou gossip, and a sinful, cowardly priest -
the album promises to be a hellish metal tale of terror.
The album artwork is by California-based artist, Fernando Saavedra,
who is also responsible for the artwork of the band's
2011 LP (In The Name Of The Father, The Son And The Unholy)
and 2013 EP (Mark Of The Devil). He will also be featured as a
guest guitarist on the instrumental track "Soul-Eating Mountain."
The album will also feature two songs entirely in Spanish,
"Héroes de las Minas" and "Hija del Mal." A bit of
Quechua (the native tongue of Bolivia) will also be included
in some of the tracks.
The band is set to play a show with TAAKE (Norway) in May
and play another show with NERVOSA (Brasil) in March at Churchill's
Pub in Miami before going on their first U.S. tour in July of 2016
along with Solstice (Miami, US) and Warcurse (Ohio, US).
The album is set to be released in the spring of 2016.

March 2018 - On March 3rd Faethom had the pleasure to share the stage with
Malón and performed "Hija del Mal", the band's second song written completely in
Spanish for the first time. Malón is a Thrash metal band from Argentina that was
formed in 1995 by Claudio O'Connor, Antonio Romano, Claudio Strunz, all
ex-Hermética (Formed in 1987) members, and Karlos Cuadrado. It is considered
one of the most representative bands of Argentine Heavy Metal. This was the first
time Malón performed in Florida and the show was a great success.

Hermes Reyes and Marcel Salas for their dedication and wishes them all the best with their new endeavors.
Below is a video of the new band lineup performing
“Lullaby for Heathen Spawn” one of Faethom’s oldest
songs which hasn’t been played in many years and
was included on the very first 2 song demo released in 2009.
It was the band’s closing setlist song for the first few years
and it is an ode to the demon baby, son of Ezrahmael, from
the band’s first concept album “In the Name of the Father,
the Son, and the Unholy” released in 2011.
Back then we used to have the demon baby screeching, crying,
and spinning his head on stage while showing off his bright
red twinkling eyes. Welcome Ibrahim and Roy!

South Florida appearance of Baltimore’s Brutal Death/Black band PESSIMIST.
The festival will take place at Churchill’s on May 25th.
The band is also looking forward to doing a small tour supporting VICIOUS RUMORS
from California at all 3 Florida dates from June 7th through June 9th in Miami
(Churchill’s Pub), Orlando (Will’s Pub), and Tampa (Brass Mug). As one of
American Metal pioneers, formed in 1979, Vicious Rumors is celebrating their
40th year anniversary by touring Europe and the US through the summer and as fans
of the band, Faethom is thrilled to join them in at least a small fraction of the
tour while celebrating 10 years since its conception. Last but not least the
legendary old school Death Metal band MASTER is playing a one-off free show
at Tin Roof in Delray Beach on June 26th with Faethom and Hellwitch on the bill.

Some great shows were booked this year including the first Metal Festival
organized by Jay Black (Ex-Malevolent Creation) which included Derek Roddy’s
new band ENDS in Pompano Beach on March 23rd.
Another great festival coming up is Death Miami Metal Fest, which Faethom
has been a part of every year since its conception and will feature the first ever
South Florida appearance of Baltimore’s Brutal Death/Black band PESSIMIST.
The festival will take place at Churchill’s on May 25th.
The band is also looking forward to doing a small tour supporting VICIOUS RUMORS
from California at all 3 Florida dates from June 7th through June 9th in Miami
(Churchill’s Pub), Orlando (Will’s Pub), and Tampa (Brass Mug). As one of
American Metal pioneers, formed in 1979, Vicious Rumors is celebrating their
40th year anniversary by touring Europe and the US through the summer and as fans
of the band, Faethom is thrilled to join them in at least a small fraction of the
tour while celebrating 10 years since its conception. Last but not least the
legendary old school Death Metal band MASTER is playing a one-off free show
at Tin Roof in Delray Beach on June 26th with Faethom and Hellwitch on the bill.
