The evolution of H8teball

H8TEBALL is a five-piece masked metal band from Kirkcaldy, Scotland. The band was formed in early 2017 with one goal in mind: to make as much mayhem as possible and sounding heavy doing it!

 

With tasty solos, meaty riffs and heart-stopping bass notes from original members Scot "War" Duff (rhythm guitar), Atholl "Störm" Wood (lead guitar) and Jahren "Nailz" Sherris (bass), the guys were taking steps towards becoming the Monsters of Masked Mayhem, unfortunately being unable to find any stable singer and drummer for any length of time, which put the breaks on things for a short time.

 

The band has come on leaps and bounds since the addition of Liam "Qlown" McDaid on drums in 2018 and Daniel "Shaggy" Shannon on vocals in early 2019. In little over a year, H8TEBALL have gone from a relatively unknown entity in the Kirkcaldy area to release the Undead debut EP in February 2020 and fighting through to the Scottish Finals of the very high caliber Bloodstock Open Air's "Metal 2 the Masses" battle of the bands.

The band are currently working on a new album which should be released mid Summer 2023.

The band continues to aim higher and higher, working hard to create the Mayhem that the World Metal Scene deserves!
