 | | The list of bands that Himsa's admirers have cited as influences is a long one; it's a list that ranges from Slayer, Obituary, Megadeth, and Sepultura to the Cro-Mags to power metal favorites Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. |
 | | Himsa got started in 1998, when three members of the band Trial -- drummer Mike Green, bassist Derek Harn, and guitarist Brian Johnson -- decided to leave and form a new band with guitarist Aaron Edge. |
 | | While metalcore is the band's orientation, Himsa draws on a variety of metal and punk influences and has incorporated elements of thrash metal, power metal, death metal/black metal, grindcore, and, of course, hardcore (metalcore is a style that takes hardcore to the extreme). |
