The honky tonk metal band Scattered Hamlet
Scattered Hamlet is honky tonk metal mixed with enough octane to drive in an 18 wheeler. Created to capture the essence of growing up in the country while giving nods to the original classic rock and outlaw country pioneers, Scattered Hamlet is one part Lynyrd Skynyrd and Molly Hatchet and one part Motorhead and Down, featuring a sleazy southern influence laced with heavy rock elements.
Scattered Hamlet’s influences range from southern rock to groove metal to doom metal with the attitude of punk rock. With humble origins all across the US and a relentless touring schedule of 100+ shows all across America, the band makes no apologies for the equal love of Harley Davidsons, honky tonks, Les Pauls, Marshalls, shotguns and classic American symbolism.
Their debut full length album, Skeleton Dixie, was produced by two time Grammy nominated producer Jason Donaghy (Rob Zombie, John 5, The Murder Dolls) and mastered by legend Howie Weinberg (Pantera, Slayer, White Zombie, Danzig). The band has amassed a strong underground following called “Hell Riders” who maintain their own “chapters” (fan clubs) independent of the band.
Scattered Hamlet has a relentless touring schedule having also appeared at Rocklahoma, Van’s Warped Tour, A2 Festival (Michigan), SXSW, Locofest (Iowa) and have done product demonstrations at NAMM. Showing no signs of slowing down with a headline tour set to be announced.
The band’s new album “Swamp Rebel Machine” is out November 4th via Black Moon Productions. The album was produced and mixed by Jason Donaghy and Jake Rodenhouse and contains 11 supercharged anthems.
