Head Hits Concrete is a Canadian political grindcore band that formed in April 1999 in Winnipeg. Between 1999 and 2004 the band recorded a cassette demo, 3 EPs and split records with My Minds Mine and Bodies Lay Broken. Head Hits Concrete went on extended hiatus in 2004, but reformed for a show with Brutal Truth in 2010. The band has toured briefly since that date, and released the Hollowed Out Human Husk EP on Mercy of Slumber Records in March 2013.

Contents

Prior to going on hiatus, Head Hits Concrete played numerous shows in Winnipeg, including annual extreme music festival Arsonfest, and embarked on one American and one Canadian tour with Fuck the Facts. The band collectively decided to pursue other projects after returning from their western Canadian tour in 2004. Those projects include instrumentalists Prague (Bunio, Boychuk), Putrescence (Alexander), Kursk (Skibinsky), Wolbachia (Skibinsky), Big Trouble in Little China (Bunio, original guitarist Byckal) and L'viv (Boychuk). These projects are in various states of activity.
