Description

Australian skate-punk/hardcore band, active since 1986. The Hellmenn came blasting out of Sydney’s northern beaches skate punk scene like a rocket from the tombs of hell. The bands fierce sound mixed Black Flag with Black Sabbath by the way of an environmental manifesto. The Bands original image was of a drug-crazed surf punks looking for good times and loud rock’n’roll, which said more about a desire to create mayhem as opposed to creating great art. On the otherhand, singer Ben Brown was also well known for his grotesque, demented artwork which was an extension of the bands frantic approach to music making.
This is their first album released in 1987 on Waterfront records. Ex+/Ex+. Comes with the original insert.
