What the label says:HELMET return with MONOCHROME, a record that finds the band’s full circle return to the sonic template that cemented the band as one of the primary forefathers of the post-hardcore/punk genre. With the return of producer Wharton Tiers to the fold, a lineup shift, and a headlining slot on this summer’s Warped Tour, Helmet and founder and vocalist/guitarist Page Hamilton are in prime fighting shape. For MONOCHROME, Hamilton enlisted collaborator Wharton Tiers to co-produce with the intention of a return to the organic sound the band is known for. “Wharton was my only choice to co-produce this project with me,” said Hamilton. “ Apart from the sounds he can get in his studio, he was also a major influence in terms of helping me shape my guitar playing.” On this, the band’s sixth full-length, Hamilton knew what he wanted otherwise. “This album was made quickly, like the first two Helmet records, and I didn’t want anybody else’s opinions to slow me down. I’ve done this before and I wanted to do it my way.” HELMET’s catalog also includes Betty (1994) Aftertaste (1996), and Size Matters, (2004). Helmet’s forward fusion of metal, punk, indie-rock, and jazz has inspired countless bands--many that have come to define their own disparate threads of heavy rock. The HELMET sound sparked a new brand of metal, crossing all traditional music boundaries, paving the way for bands like Chevelle, Deftones, Killswitch Engage, Norma Jean and Silverchair, among many others. |
