www. HIRAX. org HIRAX began in Los Angeles in 1984, but because of the weak metal scene in their area, they spent most of their time playing in San Francisco along with Slayer, Metallica, and Exodus, who were all part of the exciting new metal emerging from the Bay area. Because of their notoriety in the underground, HIRAX were signed to Metal Blade Records and contributed a track to the legendary compilation "Metal Massacre VI," which also featured Slayer, Voivod, Celtic Frost, Fates Warning, Metal Church, and Trouble.
In 2000, HIRAX released the EP titled "El Diablo Negro". This was the first release on Black Devil Records, De Pena's label, and Deep Six Records. HIRAX had come full circle at this point, redefining their sound with a combination of speed and aggression similar to their early style. In 2003, HIRAX played at the prestigious Bang Your Head Festival in Germany. HIRAX spent the last half of 2003 writing material for their new studio recording titled "The New Age Of Terror."
HIRAX is a band consisting of 5 talented musicians--lead guitarists Glenn Rogers and Lance Harrison, bassist Steve Harrison, and drummer Jorge Iacobellis, but the band is a dream and obsession of one man. Katon W. De Pena. Metal flows through Katon W. De Pena's veins and HIRAX is the band that will keep true metal alive. The New Age Of Terror was released worldwide in 2005. HIRAX's live assault continued with a headlining slot at Minneapolis Mayhem 2 Festival, as well as appearances at the Metal Devastation Festival in Arizona, Tijuana, Mexico, San Francisco, Las Vegas, and Massachusetts.
HIRAX's first DVD THRASH TILL DEATH, was a headbanging-epic clocking in at over 2 hours! The DVD featured the complete set from their performance at Minneapolis Mayhem 2, plus bonus footage from shows played in Germany, Sweden, The Netherlands, and San Francisco during THE NEW AGE OF TERROR tour.
Their DVD THRASH AND DESTROY features their live performance at KEEP IT TRUE Festival IX in Dittihiem, Germany (2007), plus bonus footage from METAL FORCES Festival(Lorrach, Germany). This 2-disc set also includes a CD of HIRAX's live performance at KEEP IT TRUE IX as well.
