Meresin

In October 2010, in the heart of Lesser Poland, on the initiative of guitarist and vocalist Bartosz "Leon" Lenarczyk, the band "Beauty ov Fire" was formed.
Less than half a year later, after several interpersonal changes, the band was joined by Łukasz "Shaman" Stanowski – guitar, Bartosz "Bob" Kozioł – drums and Krzysztof "Is" Śliwa – bass.
This lineup continued to create and perform for the next few years – including alongside Thy Disease during the Contaminated Summer Tour 2011. At the end of 2013, the group suspended its activities until April 2015, when it played its last concert with this lineup.

In 2016, the band ended their collaboration with Bob and began working on recording a demo titled "Divine War." That same year, the band changed their name to "Blessing ov Fire." In March 2017, the band parted ways with bassist Is. The search for permanent musicians continued until October.
In 2019, the band was joined by Dawid "Dave" Sokół on bass and Helio Gonzales Rivas on drums. The band began touring again and in 2020 began work on their first full-length album, "Meresin." The material was once again recorded at Studio Take47 near Krakow. In 2023, the group partnered with Case Studio, which released the LP "Meresin" by Blessing Ov Fire. Blessing Ov Fire's music is a blend of broadly defined metal, which the musicians describe as melodic death metal.

Current band lineup:
•Bartosz "Leon" Lenarczyk – guitar, vocals
•Łukasz "Shaman" Stanowski – guitar
•Dawid "Dave" Sokół – bass
•Helio Gonzales Rivas – drums

A few words about the album from the album producer and owner of Case Studio:

I first encountered the music of Blessing Ov Fire back in 2021, when someone sent me two recordings from the band's EP. I was thrilled that Bartosz (bandleader, guitar, vocals) contacted us about releasing the album "Meresin." We decided to release the album and work together on the mastering. It turned out to be a great metal track. It's a very melodic album that has everything it needs: cool solos, a good section, and great vocals, plus a dynamic that keeps you going from the first track to the last. I recommend it!
