High As Hell To Film Video For Big River. Debut Album, Razorblade Dream Out On November 6th
Melbourne bruisers High As Hell crashed onto the scene last month with their monstrously huge debut single, House Of The Holy.
Today, the band deliver an equally abrasive knock-out punch with the release of the video for single number two, Big River.
Frontman and riff lord, Dave 'Fazz' Favazza says of the clip "SSSHHHHH!!! Don't tell anyone, but we broke curfew to make this film clip, because that's the kind of rock n roll metal head motherfuckers we are.. Ain't no government asshole gonna stop us from doing what we love doin.. We've got shit to do, It's time to rage against the fuckin machine again!!!! Anyhow, so we kind of let ourselves into this awesome old abandoned shack on a huge canola field in the middle of nowhere, it felt like we were vulnerable to millions of snakes waiting to ambush us, but once we turned the amps up to 11 and got jammin that vulnerability subsided. "
The band continue; "We smashed it out for a few hours and got done what was needed before risking the owner of the property turning up with a shotgun (which would've been great for some B roll! haha). We then proceeded over to the pine forest to shoot the scene of Fazz running from his demons.
It was very entertaining to say the least and at one point we were sure he was gonna pass out! We had a really awesome time making this video and under the current circumstances, we were definitely on edge which shows on film.
No matter how far you run, at some point you gotta man up and face your demons, and don't ever let that river of temptation wash you away!
We hope you enjoy... from the HIGH AS HELL clan"
House Of The Holy & Big River are taken from High As Hell's debut album, Razorblade Dream.
The album will be released on November 6 via Dinner For Wolves
Pre Orders are available now!

The Resurrection Of The Riff
HIGH AS HELL
Old School Metal, New School Attitude
In 2020, the heavy music world is in a mess. Endless sub-genres and factions dominate the scene and a band’s political persuasion seems to be more important than their musical ability.
Does anyone know how to bang anymore?
Metal, has lost its way, but fear not! High As Hell are about to deliver one massive shot in the arm for fans of skull crushing, fist pumping, heavy-fucking-metal!
Hailing from somewhere in Victoria you’ve probably never been to, let's just say a short drive from Melbourne, High As Hell are three bad asses hellbent on bringing back some old school metal.
The way it was, big, fat crunchy riffs, aggressive, powerful vocals and songs that can get a pit raging from the get go.
Live, the boys deliver their music with such raw power and honesty that the old schooler will nod in approval and new kids will wonder where metal like this has been hiding all their lives.
Their pounding riffage is made to headbang to and their anthemic melodies are the stuff metal was built on. The love child of Sabbath, Metallica, Down and High On Fire, High As Hell are ready to unleash the beast with their debut album, Razorblade Dream, on November 6.
Get ready or get out of the way.
The boys from High As Hell have been cranking it since 2016 and it’s time you joined the party.
