Heavy // Hitter Drop “Heaven’s Gate” Video

HEAVY//HITTER will be touring throughout the fall, with headline dates and a trek in support of Carnifex and Cryptopsy on deck. All confirmed dates are below.

HEAVY//HITTER are, have always been, and always will be… unabashedly and undeniably real.

Since 2019, the band have buzzed as an underground upstart. They bulldozed a path with the Street Violence EP in 2021. They picked up plugs from Lambgoat, Lawnchair Youth, and more. Between packing houses live, they caught the attention of Blue Grape Music and signed to the label.

Unwavering drive, hustle, and a committed grind brought them to this point.

“Before I started this band, I quit music for five years,” says Austin. “I tried to go to college. I was a general manager at Domino’s Pizza. I did construction. Nothing was fulfilling, so I got back into music and started HEAVY//HITTER  with Dane. I just never gave up on this band. We always want more, and we’re not going to stop.”

The band decamped to Los Angeles where they recorded Moments of Misery with producer Austin Coupe. Inspired by the likes of Suicide Silence, Knocked Loose, and Carnifex, they refined an “OG deathcore sound with newer hardcore and metalcore elements,” according to the fontman.

Ultimately, HEAVY//HITTER hold nothing back.

“When you listen to us, I hope you feel the emotion we put into the record. That’s what music is about. We’re not a machine. We’re human and honest,” Hayes shares.
