About Hey Colossus
English sextet Hey Colossus have crafted their doom-laden brand of melodic noise rock since the early 2000s. Over the years, the members changed, but the heart of the group remained founders Joe Thompson (bass) and Robert Davis (vocals, guitars). Inspired by Krautrock, psych metal, and bands like Fugazi, Faith No More, the Fall, Nirvana, and Nine Inch Nails, childhood friends Thompson and Davis formed many bands in the '90s before eventually creating Hey Colossus in 2003. Their debut EP, Hey Colossus Hates You, arrived in 2004; they quickly followed with II the next year. Project: Death arrived in 2007 and the band continued their prolific output with an almost yearly release schedule into 2011. A compilation of the band's first decade of work, Dedicated to Uri Klanger (2003-2013), was issued in 2013, the same year they released Cuckoo Live Life Like Cuckoo. 2015 saw the release of a pair of LPs: In Black and Gold and Radio Static High. By 2017, the group was rounded out by Paul Sykes (vocals/keys), Timothy Farthing (vocals/guitar), Rhys Llewellyn (drums), and Roo Farthing (guitar/keys). They released The Guillotine (Rocket Recordings) that same year. ~ Neil Z. Yeung
