Toronto-based sludge punk outfit HSY was formed in 2011 by the mononymous “Jude.”

Almost two years since their first incarnation and with a full lineup finally in tow, HSY disappeared to an empty, small town church to record their self-titled 2013 debut EP on Buzz Records; garnering praise from the likes of Pitchfork, Stereogum and Noisey.

Releasing the AA-side, Cyber Bully b/w Phantasm Blast via Too Pure and Buzz, HSY ventured to the UK in 2014 and offered a nerve-shredding introduction to their unique brand of filth.

Joined by Anna (Vocals, Guitar), Link (Bass) and Kat (Drums), HSY harkens to the 80’s post punk vibes of Section 25 and 90’s sludge metal gods The Melvins, crafting the perfect soundtrack for Toronto’s seedy underbelly.
