Hella · Tune In
Hella is a math-rock duo formed in Sacramento, California, in 2001 by guitarist Spencer Seim and drummer Zach Hill, who had played together in the Northern California band Legs on Earth. Their 2002 debut, Hold Your Horse Is, established a dense, hyperactive instrumental style built on Seim's knotty guitar lines and Hill's frenetic drumming, making them a touchstone of the math-rock and noise-rock scenes. Hella expanded to a five-piece around 2006-07 before contracting back to the core duo in 2009; their most recent album, Tripper, was released in 2011. Zach Hill went on to co-found the experimental group Death Grips.
