Known as one of the more theatrical bands of the NWOBHM movement, the origins of CLOVEN HOOF hail back to the late Seventies. The band has remained a constant metallic powerhouse in the decades since despite a few brief periods of inactivity or hiatuses.
CLOVEN HOOF recently reported that they’d signed a deal with Pure Steel Records and are currently in the studio working on a follow-up album to ‘Who Mourns For The Morning Star’, tentatively planned for a fall release.
