Helmet was formed in New York City in 1989 by founding members Page Hamilton(guitar), Henry Bogdan(bass), Peter Mengede(guitar) and John Stanier(drums). The group signed to Ampthetamine Reptile Records, and released their first full-length album, Strap It On, in 1990. Interscope Records soon came calling and signed the band in 1992.

The band found mainstream success with their Interscope debut Meantime which debuted at number 68 on the Billboard 200 and spawned the hits “Unsung” and “In the Meantime”. After releasing two more albums, Helmet broke up in 1998, before leader Page Hamilton put together a new lineup in 2004.

The band released their first post-reunion album, Size Matters, later that year and it was their last release on their longtime label Interscope Records. They licensed the following album Monochrome to Warcon Records in 2006, the rights to which have since reverted back to Helmet. On September 7th, 2010, the band self-released a new album Seeing Eye Dog via a marketing and distribution deal with Work Song. The album is also available in exclusive formats and multiple options direct from the band’s website www.helmetmusic.com.Fleece website:
