HELMS ALEE - WEATHERHEAD (LP)

Helms Alee Weatherhead on LP

Weatherhead is the sophomore album from Helms Alee. Their gamut of timbres from the most guttural blown-out roar to the most graceful lilting melody summon a sense of triumph, empowerment and conquest.

The relentless chugging fuzz and vocal harmonies of “Elbow Grease,” the concrete thrust of the central riff of “8/16,” the thunderstruck arpeggio of “Pretty As Pie,” the siren song of “Pig Pile,” the unbridled scuzz of “Ripper No Lube” and the alternating agit-punk and anthemic approach of the title track all reinforce Helms Alee’s position as masters of diametrically opposed tactics.

They are the true heroes and heroines of the loud-quiet-loud. Weatherhead was recorded by Matt Bayles at Studio Litho and Red Room Studios in the Winter of 2010-2011.
