Classic Canadian Alternative: hHead

hHead was a Canadian alternative band in the grunge vein. They wrote powerful tunes about disenfranchised youth and played energetic shows. I got to see them a few times back in the day. The mosh pits were legendary and I remember a particular Doc Marten to the head at the Rivoli. Good times!

Singer/guitarist Noah Mintz has made quite a name for himself as a mastering engineer, and bassist Brendan Canning is a founder of that legendary Canadian indie collective Broken Social Scene. hHead released three albums, 1992's Fireman, 1994's Jerk and 1996's Ozzy.
