Ever since, they've been making quite a name for themselves. Becoming known not only for their heaviness and originality, but also for their great live performances. From the begining, HN gained a lot of notoriety in the local scene. Containing members from different musical backgrounds, HN has develloped a unique sound based on originality and distinction."A Canada (Quebec) based metal band executing the epitome of blistering hardcore and technical metal with thick breakdowns, blasting percussions, and impeccable musicianship. They perfectionize an original sound of old and new school metal, raw, intense, in your face."
Since the release of their debut independent DIY release, "World of Hate" (March 2002), the band has been touring in East Coast Canada, did over 100 shows and performed with bands such as 100 demons, In Dying Days, A Perfect Murder, A Death for Every Sin, Final Word, IRE, The Black Hand, Lofofora, Ark Angel, Day of Mourning, Pitboss, Bloodwar and many more The band has proven their ability to own the crowd with their tightness, but mostly with total sickness on stage.
A couple of months after the release of W.O.H., Pascal Lepage (former drummer) has to be replaced due to a lack of time (and more serious orientations of the band). Jean-Francois Defosses joined the band six months later, bringing to the band a whole new dimension.
In April 2004, they released a new 6-song EPCD titled "Our Mistakes", filled with political, anti-war, societys values based lyrics and a powerfull and mature sound. Since then, HN has worked hard to expand their popularity all around Canada and the US. NEW ALBUM AND TOURING IN PROCESS FOR SUMMER 2007.. ITS GONNA KICK ASSSSSSS..STAY TUNED..
