A few days ago, THE END Records announced the signing of one of our favorite local acts in the New York scene, HULL, and we are not just saying that because we happened to share many-a-bowls with the dudes, but because their music is guaranteed to rip your head off! The band can be compared to the likes of Neurosis, Mastodon and High on Fire but have a sound uniquely their own. I've seen them many times all over the city, and no matter if you heard of the band or not, your head will uncontrollably begin headbanging.
The band is currently in the studio with John Cosenza of Meteor Sound in Far Rockaway, NY. putting the finishing touches on their debut Sole Lord, which should see a late spring/early summer release. If you have yet to experience HULL check out this live video excerpt of the 18 minute epic "Viking Funeral" below that we taped about a year ago (which might not have the best audio quality) or head over to the band's MySpace page to hear some better audio clips.
