It all started one summer day in 1992, when singer, guitarist and song writer Christer Nilsson assembled musicians in a recording studio in his hometown of Ljusdal, in the heart of Sweden.
HION MARTELL got the current line-up in 2009. In November of 2010 they released full-length CD, 'Will Cure Any Disease' (Viskningar och Vrål / Plugged). It has been well received throughout Europe, and songs from the album have been played expansively by radio stations in Sweden, as well as UK, Holland, Belgium, France, Germany and Italy.
HION MARTELL continues to stay active. The band is in the process of producing a new album with the running title 'Container'. It is not yet determined when it will be released. First the band wants to be utterly satisfied with the material.
A sneak preview in the form of single 'Water' (a remake of the EP-track from -06) was released in November 2011. This has been well received by radio stations in Sweden and as well as the rest of Europe.
