Infamous for their raucous live shows and brazen public image, HORMOANS began garnering attention after an explosive NXNE performance set the band's trajectory into high gear in 2013; a year which also saw the release of their first LP, “Millar” - a heavy and sporadic 13 song onslaught produced by Greg Dawson (Cunter, Mare), that caught the attention of local radio and print publications. The momentum continued for the band after a series of successful festival appearances, including CMW and Lab Cab Arts Festival, where the band debuted new material off of “Slander” to curious and excited fans.

Vocalist and guitarist, Steve, combines surf punk and grunge chord progressions while channeling melodic, guttural vocal arrangements. Matt on bass guitar delivers the aggressive low-end pulse that compliments the band's textured sound; while drummer, Cyrus, plays at such a calculated and progressive pace, that the band's style becomes reminiscent of the 90's alternative rock movement.

HORMOANS continue to test their musical boundaries and evolve their sound as a band hell bent on catapulting the music scene in Toronto through their “tornado mix of punk and grunge with a surf mutation”. 2015 tour dates in Southern Ontario and the West Coast will be announced in the coming months, in addition to the much-anticipated music video release for Made of Stone - the band's first single off of “Slander”.
