This has got to be one of the most underrated bands ever. Seriously how can people not have heard of this.

This is pre-Celtic Frost with two band members from CF, Tom and Steve, and any Celtic Frost fan should have either heard of this band or have listened to thier music.

Lyrics:
Total destruction
Mankind to "Hell"
Blind and insane
The misguided repent
But it's a bit late...

In the heat of infernal lightnings
And in the shadows of poisoned clouds
The world will die under the sword of destiny

Go out and see, the omens are here
A church is red, like blood of an angel
The rich and the poor, both will fall
Into the flames of malice

Biography:
Hellhammer was an early-1980s extreme metal band, hailing from Switzerland and popular briefly in Europe in the mid-1980s. They were a vital influence on black metal, death metal and doom metal, although their sound is most accurately described as mid-paced, proto-black metal (with exceptions such as the doom paced Triumph of Death). Members went on to form the massively influential band Celtic Frost.

Guitarist/vocalist Tom Gabriel Fischer (then known as Satanic Slaughter) and bassist/vocalist Steve Warrior formed the band in March 1982, originally naming it Hammerhead. They were subsequently joined by drummer Bruce Day. In spite of their rather marginal musical and technical quality, demo tapes called Triumph of Death and Satanic Rites became underground, word-of-mouth hits and the band was eventually picked up by German-based Noise Records (1984). Steve Warrior had been replaced by former Schizo bassist Martin Eric Ain, a change which marked the beginning of a serious and radical transformation in the bands music and lyrics. These changes were ultimately responsible for Fischers and Ains increasing feeling of being limited within the confines of the purposely primitive Hellhammer vehicle.
