Project: Death, by Hey Colossus

Project: Death

by Hey Colossus

supported by

jonezyboy Brutal assault of feedback, doom and sludge in which their usual high production values take a backseat to allow for Tim Cedar to weave his magic. The shadow of the Chimp looms large over this deafeningly brilliant album. Favorite track: Do They Ever Return?.

Levrikon So happy that, with Project: Death, Hey Colossus' entire discography is available on Bandcamp. This one slows way down from their first two records, adding a massive slab of doomy sludge to their experimental grinding hardcore sound. Favorite track: On The Pleasure Of Hating.

about

This is HC's third album. It was released in 2007. Wakusei Records did the vinyl version, there were only 200 of these. The CD was released by Shifty in the US, Jonson Family in the UK, Rimbaud in the Republic of Ireland and Underhill in Spain.

It was recorded by Tim Cedar at Dropout in South London.

If memory serves we also played two gigs that weekend, one in Dropout and one at The Grosvenor in Stockwell. This was ill advised.

The band on this album is Rhys / Duncan / James / Bob / Joe.

Chris Summerlin did the art. A little over ten years later he joined the band.

We toured Spain (a disaster with some OK moments) and then a couple of years later (with a new line up) we played three dates in Ireland - Dublin, Galway, Cork. We've never been back. We'd like too though. Somehow.

A group that I know only too well, I’ve been with them for nearly 30 years; from their Glaswegian basement origins to their current status as Arena band. My enthusiasm for their later output may have tempered somewhat as the mighty ‘Gwai evolved their sound to avoid pigeonholing, but there is nothing better than when they lay waste to a venue via the sheer euphoria of ‘Helicon 1’. They’re still devastating live and, after all those years, THE authority in Instrumental Rock music. Logen Ninefingers

There must be something magnetic that inexorably draws me into this thick chunk of noise, sweat, riffs, distortion, mud, repetitions, screams, psychedelia, and dirt. Something magnetic. And I have always been attracted to magnetism. muschiosauro
