Today marks the release of a new digital single from HATCHET. Surprisingly it’s the band’s cover of the W.A.S.P. classic “Hellion” from the LA shock rockers 1984 self-titled debut album, which just celebrated its 40th anniversary last week. “Hellion” can be heard on all streaming/download digital platforms or check it HERE https://youtu.be/V05Sa9n3Hv0?si=QA9epgSClc7Rl7TE


“Fist-pumping, headbanging, hardest of hard rock songs is what WASP's ‘Hellion’ makes me feel. Few songs can take me from bored, sleepy, end of the day dredge to just full-on can't sit still in your seat, rockin’ out with your cock out!” reveals HATCHET singer/guitarist Julz Ramos.


“While there's definitely heavier, faster, music galore out there, something about the energy in the recording of that specific song from that early time period of the band just can't be beat. I've always wanted to play this song in some way. So here we go!


I really do have to lend a big thanks to our bassist and (ANUBIS frontman) Devin Reiche for helping with the melodic vocal duties on this one. It was a bit of a challenge for me, but with some coaching and his vocals in there thickening it up, it really enabled it to become a reality.”
