To say that Brazilian metal reached international standards in professional terms is nothing new. It is true that many still think that playing a guitar at full blast and finding a vocalist who can shout for an hour is the same as creating a heavy metal band but the natural selection takes charge of eliminating these.

So the slot that remains ends up being taken over by those who are talented, professional, dedicated and love music. This is exactly what happens with quartet Holiness who is leaving the interior of Rio Grande do Sul, more precisely the city of Erechim, to conquer the world.
Holiness is not simply the union of talented musicians. It is much more than that. Cristiano Reis (drums) form an indisputable solid kitchen, while Fabrício Reis possess not only an immense variety of technical resources, but also a lot of feeling and enormous good taste when tuning his guitar. But the best remains for last.
Stéfanie Schirmbeck is not a little girl who thinks that reaching high notes transforms any girl into a rock singer. Simply because she is a rock singer. Stéfanie has a beautiful natural voice and, most important of all, she knows how to use it.
So heavy metal with some well-chosen hard rock details by Holiness gains personality thanks to her refined technique and enormous ability as an interpreter.
Not bad for a band that began two years ago in an unpretentious way with Stéfanie and Cristiano, who simply wanted to compose beautiful melodies that sustained themselves only with acoustic guitar and vocals. Stéfanie, Cristiano and Fabrício did much more than that. They simply created a band that has everything to be the revelation of Heavy Metal.
