[2] It was started through an event of Misery Index played in Jakarta early March 2011 (2011-03),[3] Wiro (Death Valley) and Bije (Straightout) were inspired to form a band that has similar genre, then both invited Andyan Nasary Suryadi known as Andyan Gorust (DeadSquad) to join a new project band with the commitment to making songs and record directly.
Then Gorust selected his bandmate Bonny (DeadSquad) and Ario (Carnivored) to complete the line-up through an audition, so the Hellcrust inaugural formation goes straight to the recording process.
