Master's Hammer was a Czech occult black metal band founded by Franta Storm. They were founded in 1987 and produced several demos, before releasing their debut album Ritual in 1991. A year later they completed Jilemnice Occultist - the first black metal operreta. Their 1995 album Šlágry was a drift away from the previous work incorporating many styles outside the metal genre. All of their lyrics are written in the Czech language. After a long hiatus, the band has reformed. The new album Mantras was self-released in late 2009, then, in 2012, they self-released album called "Vracejte konve na místo". In 2013 they released their 1991 album Ritual on vinyl, demos recorded from 1987 to 1992 as a 3CD digipak and a split with Blackosh via their own music label called Jihosound Records, founded in same year. Next year another 7" split with Blackosh and a new full-length album called Vagus Vetus had been released. The band promised that "If you'll like it, the vinyl shall follow this autumn."
