Xenomorph

1.) Dutch Death Metal band XENOMORPH was founded in 1992 emerging from the underground scene in The Netherlands. Their most steady line-up became: DeTombe (vocals), Coert Zwart (guitar), Kreft (guitar), JRA (bass) and Marc Bomber (drums). They most likely got their name from the "scientific" predicate given to the aliens starring in the Aliens movie series. Their lyrics are mostly about evil, Satan, and other dark and occult stuff more than once inspired by the work of artists like H.R. Giger and Sir Ridley Scott.

DHF

So what does DHF stand for? D stands for doing what they like. Playing fast-paced energetic punkrock that reminds you of the 90's skatepunk scene. And blowing soundwaves off the stage to get the crowd jumping and dancing. H stands for hardcore. It's what makes their music a little louder, a little faster, and just that much better. It's the difference between having a good night and having a great night, going home bruised from the mosh pit!
