Impure Wilhelmina was formed in 1996 in Geneva, switzerland. Their music can be described as a metal/post HxC mixture with some noise and melodic influences. Following a 7" and a MCD, "undressing your soul", released in 1998, "afraid" is their first long full length CD.

Recorded by TVO ( Knut, Nostromo,... ) in fall 1999, the nine songs featured are harsh, heavy and noisy, but sad, emotional and introspective too. By this alternation/mixture of melodic and rough parts, impure Wilhelmina follows an original way to exhibit their failures and disappointments. Afraid saw the light in may 2000, and was critically-acclaimed by the underground zines in Switzerland, France, Belgium...

In February 2001, the band toured for several dates in France with their friends of Ordeal, and both bands decided to record a split CD, now released on Division Records.
