Hellvar was formed in Berlin in 2004 when Elvar (Dys, Hei_ingjarnir) and Hei_a (Unun, Dys, Hei_ingjarnir) decided to participate in the electro-schene there. The two of them played with a drum-machine, and in this format they wrote songs for their first album, „Bat out of Hellvar", released in 2007. Back in Iceland Hellvar evolved from the electro-punk-duo to a full-blown five-piece rockband.
