HATCHET DAWN since 2009 has raised a legacy of original world class music owning their own movement to establish a dominant, heavy and dark fusion of metal and rock music inspired visually by classic horror backlit to a groove orientated monstrous sound.
With three official releases and three music videos in 4 years, HATCHET DAWN has connected to a present alternative generation of music fans ensuring the longevity of horror infused modern music continues with non-conforming boldness and no rules while creating the HATCHET DAWN sonic art of darkness.
The band’s latest and third official release RIVER SNAKE (Drop Remix) EP is a remix of the song River Snake taken from the REBIRTH LP. RIVER SNAKE (Drop Remix) has been remixed by Switzerland producer/engineer DROP RMX (Sybreed/MXD) and also showcases the lead vocal performance of long term member BILLIE-JADE. The RIVER SNAKE (Drop Remix) crosses HATCHET DAWN over to an industrial “big beat” interpretation and to a whole new level of “Toxic Horror Rock” supporting the dream of horror infused modern metal/rock music and an evolving HATCHET DAWN.
HATCHET DAWN first full length concept REBIRTH LP released in 2011 explores the hatchet horror hi-fi of '13 twisted tales of cavorting enigmatic toxic horror oracle obscurity' and bounds a signature spooky dark mixture that expels pure haunting graveyard class following up from the 2009 FAITH IN CHAOS EP. REBIRTH has broadened the creative world of a band that has attracted the collaborated work from the renowned Grammy Award winning maestro Neil Kernon (Sex Pistols, Queen, Cannibal Corpse, Nile, Hall & Oats & Judas Priest) mixing REBIRTH along with the mastering talents of Alan Douches (Sepultura, Misfits, Killswitch Engage, HIM & Mastodon) fortifying a world class heavyweight album from beginning to end.
Apart from an original and inventive approach to music and extraordinary visual presentation, HATCHET DAWN thrives on a proud DIY mentality and continues to drive their efforts to showcase their vision with creativity as they design and construct their own elaborate stage sets and wide array of live entertainment and has preserved loyalty to their fans and commitment to growing the band’s sound and conceptual ideas. With numerous tours and having being chosen as the support act for Marilyn Manson in his 2009 tour of Australia and the legendary Misfits in 2011, prepare to witness in 2013 the bands RIVER SNAKE (Drop Remix) release showcasing an evolving HATCHET DAWN with founding member HOWSIE NOISE and fronted by long term member BILLIE-JADE.
In October 2013 remaining HATCHET DAWN members BILLIE-JADE and HOWSIE NOISE entered HATCHET DAWN into a indefinite hiatus to concentrate on their new band DIAMOND NOIR formed in LA during May 2013 while recording new material with producer Logan Mader (ex Machine Head/Soulfly/Medication).
