Hella back as a duo
 
"new record! the band HELLA are 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 4 years . the album will be recorded and finished this year of 2009. the band 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. until then GET PSYCHED, CHAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

I don't know about anyone else here but this is the best news i've heard in a long time. I missed old Hella very, very much.

Meh. They've officially released two of the worst albums of all time (the 2-cd set and the no 666 in outerspace thing). They kinda suck, if you really look at their discography, and most of their spazzy side projects suck (though I was surprised by Zach Hill's solo disc from last year, did anyone here that sBach disc? HORRIBLE!). Doubt they're going to do anything better than the stuff they did 6-7 years ago. But still, the duo is leagues better than "full band" prog thing from No 666 so I guess they're trying to do something right. They still kinda suck though besides having "killer chops dood!"

I just find them really boring, with some songs here or there that are actually pretty cool, a few things from some early ep's (specifically "Total Bugs Bunny..") and Hold Your Horse Is. As a whole, though, they do nothing for me, though they're a sight to see live, just for Zach's ferocious drumming. Either way.
