history

The band was founded in March 2007 by guitarist and singer Yaroslav Dyatel and guitarist Alexander Kumeyko under the name Stormrider. In the beginning they covered songs by Motörhead , Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath . In the first year the post of drummer changed several times and bassist Sergey Losev joined the band. In November 2008, Ruslan Babaev came as a permanent drummer for the cast, whereupon the band changed their name to Crusher. The band played their first concert on November 10th. In the spring of 2009 the band recorded their first EP, which included five songs. In January 2010 guitarist Alexander Kumeyko left the band, after which the band decided to continue with the three of them. The already recorded EP was released in July 2010 under the name Politishit . In December 2010, the recording of the debut album began. The recordings lasted until autumn 2011. Meanwhile, the band went on tour through Ukraine and released the single S (k) atanic Ride on the Internet . In the fall of that year, the band also filmed a music video for the song. In early 2012, the band signed a contract with Metal Scrap Records , whereupon the album was released on January 13 under the name Endless Torment via Total Metal Records , a sub-label of Metal Scrap Records.
