Avant metal firestormers Hair Police's origins lie in a cat piss-soaked Lexington basement adorned with piles or broken and borrowed musical equipment. Working with traditional rock instrumentation as well as electronics, tape manipulation, and oscillators, they build demonic walls of sound for a result reminiscent of Throbbing Gristle, early Black Dice, Lightning Bolt and Wolf Eyes.

"The focus is to play until we pretty much black out. Total destruction. We are going to kill with the sound. That is the only focus; sound. Fuck everything else. Everything else is boring. This is what the Gnarly Times is all about. I just want to freak out and destroy myself in 20 minutes. I don't want to remember details from any Hair Police gig."

Expect grating walls of dense noise and repetitive, pounding rhythms all-consuming sensory attack that can run from absolute crushing destruction to subtle beauty at the drop of an axe. Featuring Mike Connelly of Wolf Eyes - Hair Police build a demonic wall of sound straddling the boundary between thrash metal and industrial noise. This is seriously not to be missed stuff!
