Band Biography:

Hellhookah is a Lithuanian two-piece band formed in 2012 by Arnas (guitars/vocals) and Gintar? (drums). After almost two years of practice, Hellhookah started performing at live events in January of 2014.  In 2016 Hellhookah signed with independent U.S. label NoSlip Records to release their debut album, Endless Serpents, on compact disk and vinyl record, which is currently sold out.  Since 2016 the band has played numerous live shows and festivals around Europe including Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, France, Finland, Croatia, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.  On 17 April 2020, Hellhookah released their second album The Curse on compact disk and on digital download.

Hellhookah does not like to frame their music, but the sound has major influences of old-school metal and classic rock.  Lyrical themes are based on life experiences and earthly trials, while occasionally reaching for the heights of the sky.

Album Biography:

Hellhookahs new album The Curse is a slightly deeper and darker album both musically and conceptually, compared to earlier pieces.  Much like Black Sabbath, there are no happy songs on The Curse, where the music is more dark and damned.  Lyrical themes refer to existential problems while occasionally looking from a global perspective, as in the song Greed and Power.  The album flows with references to war, mass destruction, poverty, slavery, and social inequality, as never-ending global problems reflected as endless cycles repeating themselves historically and naturally.  These referenced endless cycles lead to the idea of The Curse, which through terrifying visions brings us back to the starting point of exploring our destiny, nature, and consciousness.  The album was mastered was mastered for vinyl by legend Tony Reed.
