History

Hammerhead was formed in Fargo, North Dakota in the early 1990s, with members Paul Erickson, Jeff Mooridian Jr. and Paul Sanders, later moving to Minneapolis. The band released extensively through Amphetamine Reptile Records. Their major breakthrough album Duh the Big City garnering them critical acclaim, however after its release Paul Sanders left the group. The remaining members went on to form Vaz after experimenting with other line-ups.

In 2010 the band reunited and released an EP of new material, Memory Hole EP, the following year. In 2014 they released a new EP, Global Depression, and in August 2015 they published New Directionz, their first full-length album since regrouping in 2010.
