Band Information

Hatchet Dawn is a heavy dark groove band from Melbourne playing a style that combines Rob Zombie-like sludge with furious groove riffs and vocals like a cross between Marilyn Manson and Rammstein. The band was conceived mid-2007 by founding member and guitarist/producer Howsie Noise. Howsie was a member of Terrorust briefly during 2006 and also Melbourne bands The Symbiosist and Tribura.

Hatchet Dawn's initial 2007 lineup featured Adam "Loki" Stewart on vocals, Howsie Noise on guitars, Lee Kollias from Dialysis on drums, Justin Horne (also Dialysis) on bass and Glenn Kollias on guitars. This lineup recorded the five-track EP Faith in Chaos in 2007 but it remained un-released for two years due to a lineup change early in 2008 that saw all original members except Howsie Noise move on to work in other bands and projects.

A debut album was put into production in July 2008 with DW Norton producing but never eventuated. Howsie recruited Billie-Jade on bass, Dman on drums and Ben Vengeance on guitars in 2009 and released Faith In Chaos EP on 14 April, 2009. Hatchet Dawn’s debut live performance was on 23 January, 2009 at Switch in Melbourne.

Hatchet Dawn opened for Marilyn Manson in October 2009 for four dates in Melbourne and Adelaide. The band also toured the east coast in 2009. Loki and Vengeance departed the band in late January 2010. Bert Cuzens from The Symbiosist/Dialysis and Das Schmidt (also The Symbiosist) united with the current lineup. Hatchet Dawn released a debut album Rebirth on September 9, 2011. Rebirth was mixed by Grammy award winning producer Neil Kernon. Hatchet Dawn opened for the Misfits in Melbourne December 2011 during the "Halloween Rebirth Tour 2011".

The promotional music video for Dark Symmetry featured on MTV Australia Headbangers Ball October 19th 2011.
