GUTRIX is a 4 piece Heavy-Rock band formed by two members of MERCYFUL FATE, guitarist Hank Shermann and drummer Bjarne Holm. After finishing their US-Tour with Mercyful Fate in February 1995, they teamed up with bassplayer Claus Weiergang and vocalist Richard Plougmann, to form the new band GUTRIX. Shermann, Holm and Weiergang had already been playing together in the band ZOSER MEZ, who released an album in 1991, also featuring guitarist Michael Denner from Mercyful Fate. GUTRIX's music encompasses light and shade, climax and emotion, heacy and metal, which is delivered explosively on stage. Their roots are digging in the 70's gold era, and the songs are clearly influenced by the most heavy bands from that period. GUTRIX recently recorded their first album titled "Mushroom Songs", and a video for the Janis Joplin cover song "Move Over".
