HERUVIM - Mercator CD

Heruvim are not just a band -- they are a family. They are united by their love for death metal and the heavy music they create, despite the chaos they currently face. While writing Mercator, half of the band were abroad, and the other half remained in Odesa, Ukraine. The recording process wasn't easy. Many studios have shut down, and with the ongoing war, traveling to record was dangerous. Bombings, shrapnel, and forced conscription were constant threats. The government is snatching ordinary people off the streets and sending them to fight in poorly equipped and dangerous conditions, while the rich and powerful remain safe. It's a war of the poor. Despite all of this, Heruvim managed to make this album. It wasn't safe--missiles could strike at any moment, and they were constantly at risk of being taken by the authorities, but they never gave up.
