"HAMMERED HULLS are a brand new band from Washington D.C. made up of some very old connections. MARY TIMONY (EX HEX, WILD FLAG, HELIUM, AUTOCLAVE) and Alec MacKaye (FAITH, IGNITION, WARMERS) grew up in the same Washington neighborhood and have spent the better part of their lives in each other's somewhat distant orbit. Always aware of each other, but never able to play together. MARK CISNEROS (DEATHFIX, MEDICATIONS) has been in D.C. for more than a decade. He cut his teeth in Los Angeles listening to both MARY and ALEC's bands, but also a healthy dose of free jazz and garage. He is the man who plays everything with everyone, but this is his band. HAMMERED HULLS are rounded out by CHRIS WILSON (ACQUAINTANCES, TED LEO & THE PHARMACISTS, OPEN CITY), a monstrous drummer with no shortage of love for all three of his bandmates. Every person in this band is a fan of every other person in this band. Mutual respect drives this train. But to say they are an odd collection of influences is to understate the point. If you tried you couldn't imagine what this band might sound like. This single was recorded and mixed in a single day at Inner Ear studios, appropriate home to everyone in the DC scene."
