H.E.R.R. is a Dutch / English band that was founded in 2002 by Michiel
Spapé (composer). Other core members are Miklos Hoffer (vocals/live
percussion) and, from the second album onwards, Troy Southgate (vocals/live
percussion/guitar). Musically, they have been described as neofolk,
minimalist, Neoclassical and martial. They have achieved some distinction
within those genres, particularly following the success of their second and
third albums, 'The Winter of Constantinople' (2005) and 'Vondel's Lucifer:
First Movement' (2006).
Key H.E.R.R. idiosyncrasies include Troy Southgate wearing a striped
football shirt to perform 'Hopes Die in Winter', the group's haunting
monologue about London hooliganism and the cult of the modern warrior,
whilst Miklos Hoffer is known to yell down a megaphone during live
renditions of 'Zachte Heelmeesters'. The overall style of the group tends
to be dark suits or military jackets with shirts and ties.
