Himsa Calling It Quits

Scott — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 23:19:23 +0000

Himsa has announced that the band will be playing the final show of their careers as a band.

“After 10+ years, four releases, countless tours and almost incomprehensible (yet constant) upheaval, the last three years of the band have been relatively stable. Having sacrificed everything we had in order to ensure the band’s survival it’s time to let it go. We made a great CD (‘Summon in Thunder’, Century Media); reportedly, our best. We’ve got a great label. We’re getting along, we’ve toured and we’re fine. It’s all good. We’re leaving it at that.” Says bassist Derek Harn

Himsa’s last show will be in their home town of Seattle on August 16th at El Corazon.

Himsa Big Timber Video Fraggle Rock Gone Ragnarok?

Scott — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 12:49:52 +0000

I was watching Headbangers Ball last night and Himsa’s Big Timber Video came on. This was the first time I saw and and honestly I don’t know what the hell is going on here. It’s a rather goofy video for a great song. It was like I was watching an old Fraggle Rock Episode while having a bad acid trip…but it was still pretty cool. Check out the video:
