New helmet cd "monochrome" will be released July 18th. Here´s the press release from their new record comp.:

HELMET RETURN TO THEIR ROOTS WITH ‘MONOCHROME’ OUT JULY 18 ON WARCON RECORDS; BAND CONFIRMED AS VANS WARPED TOUR HEADLINER

Forefathers of the post-hardcore/punk genre, HELMET will return July 18 with MONOCHROME, marking their first release on Warcon Records, one of the leading post-hardcore/punk labels in the industry today. This summer, the band - founding vocalist/guitarist PAGE HAMILTON, guitarist CHRIS TRAYNOR and new members, drummer MIKE JOST and bassist JEREMY CHATELAIN - will play to thousands of music lovers across North America as a main stage-headlining act on the Vans Warped Tour from June 15 through August 13. The album’s first single “Gone” will arrive at radio in late June.

For MONOCHROME, PAGE enlisted Strap It On and Meantime collaborator Wharton Tiers to co-produce and return to the organic sound the band is known for. Tiers recorded the band’s first two releases Strap It On and Meantime, the latter of which sold over a million copies and defined the brusque element of American’s underground rock scene

    SWEET !!!!!!!!!

    I frickin love this band. I was pleasantly surprised with Size Matters. There is some great Helmet songs on that album. I went and saw them on the tour for that album, and the show was great. A little tame, but maybe the crowd was a little older then when I saw them in the 1990s, like me.

    Can't wait for this to come out. Thanks for the info

    Cheers :)

    I blame it more on a combination of Helmet/Tool/NIN and RHCP myself.:)

    so I went to see Saw 3 tonight, and this song comes on during the credits, and I am completely captivated. I know it, I know it, but I don't. It's like something in the deep recesses of my brain but I couldn't tell you what the song was. I was totally unaware of what was going on, reaching for that connection of what the song was, because I knew who the artists were, but it was something different from what the answer was going to be. So I go home, check out the Saw 3 soundtrack and see the song "Monochrome" from the new Helmet is on the soundtrack, and though and behold, that is the song during the credits.

    Awesome, I know I haven't listened to the new album as much as other Helmet albums, so I write it off to not knowing it right away. But still, it's not a hard hitting Helmet song, kind of has a spacy feel to it.
