Hate Plow

Bio:

At the height of death metals inaugural reign, there was not much that could top the selling power and fan loyalty of Malevolent Creation and Cannibal Corpse. Both were, and are todaystill, considered top runners of the extreme music game. In 1994, Malevolent guitarist/mastermind Phil Fasciana, Cannibals Rob Barrett and longtime underground scene stalwart Crazy Larry Hawke put together what many still consider one of the genres best supergroups. While initially intended as a side-project, Hateplow, as they would come to be known, took on a more serious focus in late 1999 after Barretts departure from Cannibal Corpse. Soon a new vocalist was recruited in the form of Kyle Symons (ex-Sickness) and former Revenant bassist Tim Scott joined the fold. Yet the hand of fate decided to intervene when on the morning of May 24, 1997, "Crazy" Larry was found dead from smoke inhalation after a fire in his home and not long after completion of his drum tracks. This would be a damaging blow yet the debut, Everybody Dies, was released in 1998 to high acclaim. Three years would pass before HatePlow would bounce back after the loss of Crazy Larry and the departure of Tim Scott. In 2000, Dave Culross (Malevolent Creation, ex-Suffocation) was recruited to take over drum duties along with Doug Humlack (ex-Hibernus Mortis) on bass and with this line-up released their second successful release The Only Law is Survival. The band has gone on to do two successful European tours, the first in 2001 with bass replacement Julian Xaphan Hollowell (Kult ov Azazel) and again in 2003 kicking it off headlining the Fuck The Commerce Festival in Eastern Germany. 2010 and the band is working on the heaviest and fastest cd to date and also brings a new singer in the form of THE EVIL AMIDST front man Lenny Warmbrandt..The band also recruited drummer Zack Gibson(BLACK DAHLIA MURDER) and guitarist Gio Geraca(THE EVIL AMIDST & MALEVOLENT CREATION) will be replacing Rob Barrett to complete the bands sickest line-up to date.. ....
