About Us

Hellaphant

 "Connecting with the crowd no matter where we play is huge for us. Bringing them into our world."

Hellaphant is a 4 piece, angst-driven band from London, Ontario, Canada. We don't easily fit into a genre as we are more of a crossover sound. We take influences from all genres and roll them into what we do. We grab the anger and aggression of punk, the feelings of emo, the subjects of metal, rock and alt, and the vocal melodies of pop. Hellaphant grabs your attention right out of the gate and keeps it until the final chord. We play for the song and not the individual. It is an all for one mentality that keeps us in check. The new album "Crumble and Rise" is a ride through mental health, something that plagues us all on some level. From love lost, to death, to anxieties, it's all there delivered via driving beats, loud guitars and hooky vocal lines. The album was produced, recorded, engineered and mixed by Simon Larochette at Sugar Shack in London, Ontario, mastered by Harry Hess at H-Bomb Mastering in Toronto, and released on Faster and Louder Records.  In the end you get "Crumble and Rise". Welcome to the ride.

Listen to us

Hellaphant has a style that takes you back to the style you loved about the 90's  while driving head first into the future. Loud guitars, driving rhythms, with melodic vocals.  Take a listen and get carried away by the energy both recorded and in their live show. (Click on the photo)
