Hella plan new album as duo

Posted by aubin on Saturday, March 14, 2009 at 1:00 PM (EDT)

Hella have begun work on their next full length and have returned to their original lineup of Zach Hill and Spencer Seim. They explained:

HELLA is officially back to being a duo! Zach Hill (drums) and Spencer Seim (guitar) are currently writing, working and ripping on their first full length album as a two piece band in four years. The album will be recorded and finished this year of 2009. Hella has not decided on what record label will be releasing it, or whom will be producing/engineering the album. Those details will be figured and announced sooner than later. International touring will most likely follow suit.

The band released There's No 666 in Outer Space in 2007.

Interesting move, I know with all the other members that album was a lot to listen to, either way anything they put out it gold.

Liverpool routed Premier League leader Manchester United 4-1 on Saturday, coming from behind to re-ignite its faltering title chase with its biggest win at Old Trafford in 73 years.

True support, supporting a bunch of overpaid pricks from the other side of the World.

I think this one of those "good live bands, boring recorded bands."

Haha....what a fucking bomb the last record was. I'm not kidding, I actually _returned_ it to the store and the guy in a Big Business shirt was like "we normally don't d this, but that record is bullshit so I'll let it slip". And I own pretty much every release that isn't super-rare by these guys.

What the hell were they thinking? They went from making a solo record each to a FULL band.

It's definitely a love-hate thing. I pretty much hate it but amazingly there are people who like it a lot.

I was actually pretty stoked the first week I had No 666 but after that I don't think I ever listened again. I'm glad they're going back to a lineup where they can actually perform their old material.
Everyone should give Zach Hill's Asstrogical Straits a listen. Skip the first track though.

I don't get why everyone hates 666. It's different, but not a bad album at all. I think people just get all fussed about it not being your standard Hella album.
