History
The band has renamed to Red Robe in the March 2011
Yet another beijing band is born in the cradle of Midi School, found in April 2010 KillHatred by five Midi Musis School graduates but everyone of them has gained already 5 years band experience before hand. In the beginning, they had to face many problem, including musicianal differences which led to the departure of drummer and vocalist of the first line up. After two months, KillHatred was complete again as a new unit and continued on the path of metal core.
In February 2012 Rock in China interviewed them and asked on their band name, Dagon Power responded:
(...) we got the name from Zhang Fan,the headmaster of Midi School ( a rock music school based in China), which means one of the highest grade of teas using for analgesic and detoxicating or the armor of a heroic general.it indicates an act of gallant heroism and loyalty.So basically,the name of our band means both a kind of medicine which cures illness or weakness and the red armor of the ancient generals.[1]
