Helmet

Helmet is an American band formed in 1989, led by guitarist and vocalist Page Hamilton. Their music blends heavy, riff-driven metal with post-hardcore and noise rock influences, featuring tight, syncopated guitar patterns, precise rhythms, and a direct, restrained vocal style. They are known for concise, tightly arranged songs that emphasize rhythm and texture over extended solos, and they have been influential within alternative metal and related heavy rock scenes.
