“A lurching, swirling, stuttering crusher filled with noisy, atonal guitars, larynx-shredding vocals and precise, dense rhythm section." -- Decibel Magazine
"Intense hardcore with some deep lyrics." -- Toxic Metal

Decibel Magazine recently launched the video for the first single "Bayonet" HERE. (Direct on YouTube.)
Hellgrammites return with Ethos EP, an explosive and unrelenting new record delivering urgent social messages wrapped in a maelstrom of punk, hardcore, and thrash energy. This six-track release—written, produced, and recorded by the band—cements their reputation for crafting music that is both sonically ferocious and thematically uncompromising.
Lyrically driven by Erik Petersen, Ethos EP takes aim at political division, systemic oppression, and the battle for self-accountability. From the razor sharp critique of nationalism in "Bayonet", to the searing takedown of bigotry in "Body Shamer", to the introspective struggle of "Pendulum", this record is both a war cry and a call for personal reckoning. Featuring a blistering cover of Refused’s "Rather Be Dead", Ethos EP stands as a testament to Hellgrammites’ refusal to compromise in their art or their message.
Recorded across multiple locations, bass, guitar, and vocals were tracked at Cousin Cloud Studios in Denver, CO, while drums were recorded at the legendary Blasting Room in Fort Collins, CO. The EP was engineered by Colton Krohn, mixed by Colton Krohn, and mastered by Jason Livermore (The Blasting Room). The artwork, created by Troy Ten Eyck, reflects the raw intensity of the record. Join the movement. Stay loud. Stay relentless.
Ethos will be available on Limited Edition LP and download on May 16th, 2025 via Lost Future Records. Pre-orders are available HERE.
