Musical style and legacy


According to its bio on Relapse Records website, Integrity was formed in Cleveland in 1988 and is considered to be one of the first bands to mix metal and hardcore in a way that would later become popular.

They have cited influences including Celtic Frost, Septic Death, Black Sabbath, Samhain, Metallica, Joy Division, Bauhaus and Throbbing Gristle.[4]

Hellion has also had numerous side projects, including his electronic project, Psywarfare[5] and horror-themed, Vermapyre. He has also worked with the band Enforced.[6]

In July 2017, Hellion was featured on the cover of Decibel magazine, No. 153. He is quoted as saying "I do not listen to much new music. When I need a new album to listen to, I make one."[7] Previously, in 2013, Integrity's Systems Overload (1995, Victory Records) was featured in the Decibel "Hall of Fame". In feature, the album is referred to as "the landmark work in a grand and heretical oeuvre".[8]
