HC started five years ago to the day. Based in SouthfuckingLondon. The bands initial ultimate aim: Fudge Tunnel V. Can. First gig was at the Buffalo Bar, Highbury Corner, September '03, with Trencher. January '04 the debut album 'HATES YOU' was released, 12" only. "This'll have your mum in floods of tears. Good; Hey Colossus hates your mum. (4.5 / 5)" said INDIE ROCK Website Drowned In Sound. What did they know? Then came a split 7" with Notts finest, Lords. Followed quickly in 2005 by album number two, cunningly entitled 'II', which came out in the U.S on Shifty Records, home to the greatest sludge rock. "At their zenith, in the midst of the longform workouts, they come close to touching simultaneous blisspoints of Neu!'s motorik momentum and Bardo Pond's fathomless well of distortion." said jazz mag WIRE. They know their onions. If memory serves, a session on Radio One for Huw Stephens followed where HC did a version of Stereolab's Noise Of Carpet. Other Radio action includes a Session for Glass Shrimp on ResonanceFM and another Radio One thing where a version of Long Long Long was recorded for a Beatles tribute. Anyhow.. Some gigs with Boris, Oneida, Comets On Fire, SHIT+SHINE. A collaboration 12" with killer Southend skronk band Woe under the name Woe Colossus dropped on the small London based imprint State Of Distress. A split 7" with The Phil Collins 3 on Victory Garden, a 4 way 10" with Todd/Part Chimp/Lords, a split 12" with Japanese DOOM masters dot(.). "Imagine 'The Song of the Volga Boatmen' with the 'Ey-ooch-nyem' chant replaced by multiple fuzz guitars, and yooz approaching the Colossus pleasure centres. Now add mind-bending '30 Seconds Over Tokyo' top-end whiddly-wee and you nailed that sucker!" said Julian Cope. Does he know his onions still? Did he ever? Then a year back the third album Project:Death was released by multiple labels. "clearly conversant with both the unlikely extremes of krautrock and death metal.. for short stretches approaching the pummelling tranciness of the Boredoms' Super Roots 3" reported Aquarius Records (where HC want to play sometime. Someone: SORT IT). A tour of Spain, some more UK gig action.. Now a six piece, lined up to play the zxzw fest in the Netherlands with Pelican, Torche, and SUN RA ARKESTRA, German dates, Belgian action, and almost certainly some more UK fun. Here is album four: 'Happy Birthday'. Recorded through 2007 in THE DROPOUT, Camberwell. Set up + go. A finger pointing celebration, frazzled, happy and blazed. Yours sincerely, HC. For fans of : Unsane, Neu!, Circle, Corrupted, Eyehategod, Fudge Tunnel, Sludge, Doom etc
