Törr is a seminal black metal band hailing from the Czech Republic, known for being one of the pioneering groups in the Eastern European heavy metal scene. Formed in 1977 by Otakar "Ota" Hereš and Aleš "Aleister" Jedonek, Törr's music is characterized by its dark themes, aggressive guitar work, and the guttural vocals that have become the band's signature sound. They stood at the vanguard of metal during a time when the genre was under the scrutiny of oppressive political regimes, and their persistence helped pave the way for future generations of metal artists in the region.

Through their long-standing career, Törr has undergone various lineup changes but has consistently been fronted by Hereš. The band's discography has evolved from its raw, primordial black metal roots to incorporate elements of thrash and even rock 'n' roll, culminating in a sound they've described as "Black 'n' Roll." Some of their most recent releases, like "Inkvizitörr" and "Black 'n' Roll," showcase this blend of genres. Celebrating their longevity, "Chcípni o kus dál (30th Anniversary Remaster)" revisits their early material, offering fans a remastered glimpse into the band's formative years. Despite the changing tides in the music industry, Törr has maintained a cult status and continues to influence the ever-expanding metal scene.
