You are a witness to the next wave of heavy music as Hammershot storms the Bay Area, continuing the proud tradition of in-your-face, no-nonsense metal.  Combining hypnotic, frantic guitar grooves, pounding bass lines, screaming dual vocals, and steady assault of percussion, Hammershot leaves anyone within earshot little choice but to jump around breaking stuff and inflicting pain.

Hammershot's roots date back to Fremont, California in 2009 as the brain-child of guitarist/vocalist Adam Mason.  Heavily influenced by such giants as Pantera and Black Label Society, the seed was planted and soon grew into a sound of its own.

The band took the Bay Area by storm in late 2011 as they competed in - and eventually placed second overall in the final round - the Gorilla Music Battle of the Bands for San Francisco.  The first EP "This Is It" was released in 2012 as they continued to savage the ears of head-bangers throughout Northern California.

Today's configuration became complete in mid 2013 when vocalist Stu Modifies joined the fold.  The future holds much more in store for Hammershot.  A new full-length album is in the early stages of production.  Killer merchandise is on the horizon and will soon be seen on the bodies of metalheads throughout the region.  More Bay Area shows and other events are on the calendar. 

Deep in the lands of Portland, Oregon lived an evil sorcerer. His only purpose in life was to spread chaos and mayhem throughout the world. Summoning demons, spirits and unholy beasts from the bowels of hell, there looked to be no hope left for humanity. As the end drew near, the skies blackened and the air became thick and shrouded in smoke... but through the dust and rubble, four warriors took up arms against this menacing fiend. Sir Rusty, wielding his axe of destruction, forged from the bones of his fallen enemies. Sir Chris, with his menacing maul of malice, wiping out all who oppose in a single sipe. Sir Scott, harnessing the power of the twin blades and war drums, made from the skins of the foulest of beasts. And Sir Lucas, with his relentless battle cries and slicing scythe of death. Together, these noble heroes were known as the VALIANT BASTARDS, forever to fight against the evils of this land.
