(HED) P.E. Unleashes Independent Fury with Creator One Records

By Jason •
The California metal pioneers take control of their sound and future with a bold new label and a fierce new single.

After more than three decades of shunning the mainstream and carving their own rugged path through the musical abyss, (HED) P.E. is taking their independent ethos to a whole new level. The California-based legends have officially launched Creator One Records, a label driven by the motto: Created By The People. For The People. This audacious move marks a significant chapter in their relentless pursuit of artistic freedom, as they continue to defy convention and embrace their DIY roots.

To kick off this exciting new venture, (HED) P.E. has unleashed a blistering new single and music video titled "Violent Girl". The track, which is a taste of their forthcoming album "Relapse" set to drop this October, encapsulates the raw intensity and unapologetic attitude that have always been trademarks of the band. But don’t be fooled by the title—there’s a deeper narrative lurking beneath the surface.

Frontman Jahred Gomes sheds light on the track's meaning, declaring, "'Violent Girl' is not a song about a girl! It's an analogy, a metaphor. I'd rather the listener figure it out than just give away the secrets." This enigmatic approach continues the band's legacy of crafting hard-hitting music that demands introspection, inviting fans to grapple with its layers rather than providing straightforward answers.

Creator One Records stands as a testament to (HED) P.E.'s unwavering commitment to maintaining creative control and fostering direct connections with their audience. This move not only reinforces the band’s dedication to their craft but also serves as a rallying cry for artists everywhere who yearn for autonomy in a landscape often dominated by corporate interests.

Catch (HED) P.E. as they hit the road this fall on the "Even More Outta Control Tour", a co-headlining trek alongside NONPOINT and SPINESHANK that promises to deliver their legendary live experience to fans across the nation. With the launch of Creator One Records, the release of "Violent Girl", and a nationwide tour lined up, (HED) P.E. continues to exemplify what it means to create music on their own terms, never forgetting the loyal fans who have championed them through thick and thin.

"Violent Girl" is now available on all major streaming platforms, ready to ravage your senses and ignite your passion for true metal.
