The roots of Holy Moses go all the way back to 1980! Ramon Bruessler and Jochen Fuenders founded the band. The band got the kick start they needed in 1981 when Sabina and Andy Classen joined. Sabina's jackhammer voice, along with Andy's heavy riffs set the metal world on its ear. A legend was born. Over the next 4 years the band released three demos: "Satan's Angel"-1981, "Walpurgisnight"-1984, and "The Bitch"-1985. Eventually the tapes found their way to Ralph Hubert's office from Aaarrg! records who put the band on the Metallic Bunnys sampler in early 1986.
The band garnered a huge underground following throughout the mid to late 80s, culminating in a huge push in 1989 from WEA Records. Moses released their third sonic blast entitled "The New Machine Of Liechtenstein" in 1989. This was the finest hour for Holy moses as the band toured throughout Europe.
Sabina Classen was considered to be the new leader in the thrash scene. She did many interviews and even hosted "Mosh" a heavy metal show on the RTL network. Forming her own label West Virginia Records, and releasing the band's next four albums. The band officially called it quits in 1992, but released "No Matter What's the Cause" in 1994 as sort of an epilogue, on Steamhammer Records.
Fast forward to 2000: Sabina, after releasing two CDs with the band Temple of the Absurd, felt the time was right to once again resurrect Holy Moses. The violence and aggression still permeated her heart and soul. She went to Andy Classen, who runs Stage One Studios, and pitched the idea of reforming the band. Needless to say all went well and the result is the latest MCD "Master of Disaster" .
Now once again poised to reclaim the title of the leaders in the thrash world, Holy Moses is currently working on DISORDER OF THE ORDER in Stage One Studios.
