INTERVIEW: NineHertz / homeMADE

Interview for NineHertz/homeMADE.

The most kind, generous and hard-working NineHertz did us the honour of asking us some questions. The interview is part of the run-up to the homeMADE show that we will be playing on the 30th November in Sheffield at The Audacious Art Experiment...

"Hiram are another one of the fantastic local acts you can catch at the upcoming homemade event on Saturday November 30th. We caught up with Bing (guitar/vocals) and John (drums) from the band to find out what you can expect and how they are coping as a newly-reduced three-piece after the departure of long-term guitarist Greg this year."

Get over to the NineHertz website now to read the rest...

STTWTT Review - UK Horror Scene

Review of See The Thing Within The Thing from UK Horror Scene

"It’s obvious this band is a well-oiled machine"

"the production is great...stellar drumming..."

"Hiram is not your average doom band... These guys think outside the box. They’re phenomenal musicians and they play very well together... Very good musicians, a great vocalist and good writing, both musically AND lyrically."

"Those first four songs just blew me away. I’ll be listening to this album a lot more."

Awriiiight! Cheers to UKHS... cool!

STTWTT Review - NineHertz

Review of See The Thing Within The Thing by Mike from Nine Hertz.

"Once they get going it's like a prog steamroller"

"it's just dizzying (and brilliant as it happens)."

"...you'll need to put aside some time to absorb See The Thing... Whatever, keep your (third) eye open for Hiram..."

What a gent...!
