Blackosh

History

Petr "Blackie" Hošek, a founding member of pioneering black metallers Root, and who was an integral songwriter for most of that band's existence.

Blackosh is a project – or, if you want, a bunch of maniacs and friends, sometimes at random hanging around the musician who goes by the nickname Blackosh, also a founding member of the legendary Root (1987-2004), since the second half of the '80s also active in the band Crux. And also in the '90s, Blackosh started the epic Cales, with a Bathory-like feel, as well as the pure black metal of Entrails.

Blackosh, the project monicked with his own nickname, in fact accidentally became a regular band in 2013, while he and František Štorm and his company exchanged demos, and in the summer, they completed everything by a boozing party at the Jihosound studio, which gave birth to split 7″ with Master's Hammer, 'BLMH'.

In the next year, they released yet another split 7″ with their comrades Master's Hammer, titled 'BLMH 14'. From the various recording sessions, from the period following the disbanding of both Crux and Entrails, recorded on broad or narrow tapes, as well as the newer riffing and recording with a notebook here or there, in various provisional studio conditions, a few songs came to existence, in the extreme black metal spirit, sung entirely in the native Czech language.

In September 2015 the debut full-length album, 'Kurvy, chlast a black metal' ("Whores, Booze & Black Metal") was released by Iron Bonehead Productions.
