BAND BIOWe are
The Hollow Earth Theory . A five piece metal band from the West-Midlands, in the United Kingdom. We love our fans and love kickin ass live! Our best news to date is we’ve just finished our
new album ‘Rise of Agartha’ recorded at
Studio Fredman in Sweden with legend producer
Frederick Nordstrom (In Flames, Dimmu Borgir, Soilwork, At the Gates, The Haunted, Opeth, Arch Enemy).
We’re gonna take the UK with a barrage of blistering shows to support the new record throughout 2008! For booking enquiries please contact

… Previous release ‘Hanging of the Followers’ (2007) managed to gain us much appreciated friendships and respect from the likes of Metal Hammer (9/10), Bloodstock Open Air Festival, and certainly not forgetting our buds at Scuzz TV who aired our video for track ‘Letter to the Lost’ and had us play their Launch Party for their new website!

The Hollow Earth Theory are endorsed by:
REVIEWS"Brilliant and balanced metal. Soaring solos, epic guitar lines with as much growl as melodic singing; as much aggressive chugging as harmonious riffing; as much speed as pounding breakdowns."
-
Metal Hammer "There's no greater proof of power than the ability to master subtlety within grim heaviness. Most metal acts do one or the other - a few, like this band do both. Exciting times for UK metal!"
KKKK - Kerrang!"If The Hollow Earth Theory were to release a single track CD on a pre-scratched CDR and asked a tenner for the privilege, such is the quality of this band, I'd seriously consider it. It's all completely brilliant. Honestly, if these guys get any better, their next release will have me spontaneously ejaculating on command. Will someone, please, for the love of God, give them a record deal."
9.5/10 - Ultimate Metal "THET are definitely one of the best bands on the scene at the moment and really must be seen."
-
Glasswerk.co.uk"The Hollow Earth Theory are quite simply a mouth-watering prospect. Expect to see big things from this band in the near future."
-
Planet-loud.com"THET have it all. They have the songs, the musicianship, the image, and generally the whole package to be one of the biggest metal bands to come out of the UK in the last ten years. I cannot recommend them enough."
10/10 - Unsigned"It's good to hear that someone is coming up with their own sound rather than stealing and modifying someone else's"
8/10 - Rockontheweb.co.uk
"Blistering assault from promising UK upstarts."
KKKK - Kerrang!
"At the moment The Hollow Earth Theory skirt the boundaries of a new brand of progressive, intelligent metal that is as catchy as it is violent."
-
Manchestermusic.co.uk
"Lunges out of the speakers for you like something off the last Hatebreed album. This sounds great and bodes well for the future!"
8/10 - Terrorizor
"Be warned you may be left with blisters if you stand too close"
-
Sonance.co.uk
"Their next record, if they keep up this level of writing could be mind-blowing! This is one British band that you HAVE to keep an eye on!"
-
Kudos
"Soaring melodies and thundering riffs. This sounds fantastic!"
-
4/5 Big Cheese
"Highly inventive, in posession of some killer riffs, by turns savage and soothing, The Hollow Earth Theory could well be in position to take up the fallen Earthtone 9's crown as kings of the British metal scene - and with material like this, the record deal needed to push this band to the next level surely can't be far away."
9/10 - Ultimate Metal
"They have great tunes and are a delight to watch. If you like your metal HEAVY you'll love these."
-
Honeyrecords.co.uk
"This is a band that will really pull on your heartstrings and rock your world. In a sea of emo imposters and sikth-form punk rock, this is a british band really worth getting excited about!"
