Hyrgal was formed in 2007 by the guitarist/vocalist Cl?ment Flandrois (Pillars, Oorthian, ex-Svart Crown) with the help of Quentin Aberne (Carcolh, ex-Sun Preachers, ex-Marble Chariot) as a bass player and Thibault Meunier (ex-Otargos) on drums. They released their first Demo on a split album with Kairn (acoustic project of the former Otargos guitarist, Julien Savy). They then has been the opening act for bands such as Wolves in the Throne Room, Year of No Light, Otargos... Later, the band has been on hold, in 2010, for personal reasons, and Cl?ment joined Svart Crown as a full time guitarist. In 2016, Cl?ment decided to take back the project with a new drummer, Emmanuel Zuccaro (Oorthian, ex-Karne, ex-Sulphureign) with whom he get in touch since 2012, and Quentin, still playing bass. The full length "Serpentine" has then been recorded DIY at the Southern Ritual Studio during December 2016 and January 2017, the mixing and mastering has been performed by D?h? at the HH studio in May 2017.
