Hatebeak: Death Metal From the African Continent

Posted by Toby on Friday, October 6th, 2006

This is completely awesome.

“HATEBEAK is a fucking metal band with a parrot singing, no fucking joke.” - Quote from Hatebeak’s website.

Hatebeak | God of Empty Nest

I haven’t thought death metal was cool since the early 1990’s, but after reading about Hatebeak at Parrot Chronicles, it is clear that a metal-revolution is afoot…er…abeak or something.

Hatebeak consists of two human lads and an African grey parrot named Waldo. The two humans play some lightning fast, make your ears bleed guitars and drums, while Waldo sings.

It is really something to behold. Both of the band’s 7″ vinal records have completely sold out, which is testament to the novelty of the act as well as the skill and precision with which the band members nail their parts. In any case, due to factors related to supply and demand, you will have to wait to get your hands on a copy. For now, just enjoy the mp3 above!

    Definitely more fun than Hatebreed or Judas Priest.
