Forming in Ohio in the mid-'90s, Hemdale was one of the strongest forces in the grindcore scene upon their arrival. Their demo became a hot commodity among tape traders, and they developed a fan base through a steady release of singles and heavy touring. But the band never found a label to call home and quietly disappeared during the late '90s. In 2002, they reappeared with a career-encompassing CD (Rad Jackson) and a small tour throughout the U.S. and Europe. ~ Bradley Torreano, Rovi
