Heresy were a hardcore punk band from Nottingham, England, formed in 1985 and active until late 1989.
[3] In 1988, Mitch left the band, to be replaced by Baz from Ripcord, the new line-up recording the Face Up to It LP.
[3] Members Steve and Kalv formed Meatfly, and now play in UK hardcore band Geriatric Unit.
Heresy's early material merged influences from English hardcore punk groups like Discharge and American extreme metal bands like Metallica and Slayer.
