BIO:
Hellpie
makes heavy music for people that eat pie. Specifically evil pies. Not
like apple pie, but really tormented, sadistic pies. This groove metal
concoction is infused with Edward Simpson on vocals and guitars, Bryon
Ciotti on bass, and Steve 'bones' McKay on drums.
Their
fourth album “Long Gone Into Oblivion”, with six tracks and a subtle
nod to Mike Bossier at Oblivion studios, has some heavy riffs, some
thick grooves and some deeps thoughts. It’s starts you off on your
journey with current events like our struggles with social justice and
civil rights and the stigma to choose a side in the track “Rubber
Bullets”, a tune with an urgent flow and an air raid breakdown. Then
they touch on the subject of climate change and how the temperature is
rising in “Burned Alive”, and how our earth is fighting back against the
human virus. As we are taking more than we need and we ask are we in
fact “Long Gone “(with guest vocals by Jeremy Dyer) too far down the
road to our own destruction to turn back. Which leads us to our current
challenge to remain strong and fight on in this “World of Pain” with a
driving main riff that changes to a swaying break that rocks back and
forth like choppy waves at sea. Through it all we must in fact become as
one to create a rebirth and a “New Reality”. We must plant a new seed
and grow a new future. In this song there is calm, there is turbulence
and then there is unity. In the end of this journey, we find that
although we start at the bottom and we walk a tight rope through life we
will fight on and together we will “Rise”. Enjoy the ride!
