Our first OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO has finally been released! Ladies and gentlemen, we give you the music video for "Safe" from our album 'CONTROL'. It was Produced/Directed by Justin Larwick, featuring Gustavo, Kiel, and Taury, as well as the astoundingly beautiful model, Rachel House. It's been a long time coming, but we hope you thoroughly enjoy it. We also hope that this will help launch us to the next platform. To help us keep making music videos, stop by the DHP SHOP and get yourself some tunes and some gear to rock out in! Thanks everybody!



I lied... I got to see the final edit on the music video, showed it to a couple friends, and decided that we need to get more footage. I'm really hoping that this video pays off. At least Gustavo is back in town and this will give us an oppurtunity to get him in the video.

BTW! Please stop by the DHP SHOP. We still have 50 signed Limited Edition copies of CONTROL left. Plenty of Ltd Ed gear, too. Thanks guys!



The video shoot went well. Looks like the final release of it will be at the end of March. What I'm hoping to do is make 2 more videos this year and eventually, a ways down the road, have enough footage and music videos to put together a DVD. But we'll have to just keep plugging away for that end result. A lot of personal funds are, and will be, going into this ultimate goal which will make it a long, drawn-out process to accomplish. I don't think kickstarters will work for us so, if you would like to help us out, please just stop by our online store and get yourself some cool gear. That does help out.

Thanks as always!



It's official! Going to be shooting our first music video this weekend. Going to be making a video for 'SAFE' off the latest release, 'CONTROL'. It should be a lot of fun. Got Kiel coming down to D-Town on Friday and we will be shooting Saturday night. Unfortunately, Gustavo could not make it up due to prior commitments, but we're not stopping with just one video and I'm sure he'll be able to make it for the next video shoot.

More info to come soon on that!



Holy fucking shit! So excited! The next full-length Dead Hand Projekt album, CONTROL, is to be release in just 5 DAYS! Pre-orders are available at the DHP SHOP, BANDCAMP, iTUNES, and AMAZON!

I believe that this album (as much of an evolution as every DHP release is measured) will be a great step forward; not just for Dead Hand Projekt, but for the striving Industrial community as a whole. We truly want to thank you for being proud supporters of what we do, and we hope that with every release we can continue to grow with our fans to make bigger and better things happen.

We still have plenty of our first run of Ltd Edition T-Shirts, Babydoll Shirts, and Patches left; as well as our Ltd Edition version of CONTROL (Only 100 being made and includes 2 exclusive BONUS TRACKS that are only available on the LE Version). Head over to our SHOP to help keep us being able to do what we do and get yourself something awesome at the same time.

We are also excited to announce our next upcoming shows:

Sad news brought to those of you that were looking forward to seeing DHP on the West Coast stretch of the 'War On All Sides' Tour. I'm sorry to say that the previously announced Bakersfield [CA] show has been cancelled. We were in the works of performing the following areas, in which have all been cancelled for this tour:

Boise, ID
Spokane, WA
Seattle, WA
Portland, OR
San Francisco, CA
Sacramento, CA
Reno, NV
Bakersfield, CA
Los Angeles, CA
Las Vegas, NV
Phoenix, AZ
Mesa, AZ
Tucson, AZ
Albuquerque, NM

The reasons for this stretch of tour being cancelled range from promoter schedule conflicts, lack of attendance at live shows for previous events or other live performances/tours put on by those venues/promoters (leaving those promoters/venues unable to afford it), promoters not acting in a professional manner by simply not replying back to my e-mails/messages when inquiring their interest, promoters running into personal financial crisis or injuries, etc.

At some point the amount of funds from shows that I was able to book didn't cover the costs of gas, let-alone other tour expensenses such as (but not limited to) food and a place to sleep. I would have had to spend $1000+ to afford to do the shows that were booked out of my pocket. I simply can't afford that, especially since I was taking time off of work to do the tour and I have to cover rent and other bills.

I am NOT defeated and the decision to cancel this stretch of the tour was so that DHP can continue to exist and fight another day. I plan to attempt another tour to perform these areas again in the near future. (You pick your battles to win the war)

How can you help us to be able to perform your city in the future? You can begin by going to shows/events in your local area. Support your local scene. Then you can talk-up Dead Hand Projekt to your local promoters and let them know your interest in seeing us perform. We can do 1-off shows if a promoter is interested in booking it, but I can guarentee that it will cost them less if they book us for when we are on tour. Also know that I don't charge more than my costs. I like to make sure promoters are able to continue to book shows and support their local crowds (you).

I will say this to promoters: If you want to thrive and be able to afford to continue on, don't book the same fucking bands that won't get off the fucking road. Nobody wants to see a band they've seen twice already THAT YEAR! I'm sorry if the truth and the obvious upsets you. I don't shy away from stating the facts and being blunt about it. I'm only saying it so that you can survive another day and so that there is a place for music like mine.

With all of this said... The tour itself is not completely dead. I was able to hold on to 3 shows. I proudly present to you the 'War On All Sides' Tour as it stands now:

Casper, WY (03.02.13)
Salt Lake City, UT (03.04.13)
Colorado Springs, CO (03.06.13)

We have an amazing performance planned. Be sure that you don't miss it if you can make it out to any of these shows. The first time we plan to reveal our new "upgraded" show will be at the Velvet Acid Christ show in Denver, CO on Feb 9th (click the flyer in the upper-right to rsvp and see more details). This will be Velvet Acid Christ's first show in 12 years. It's going to be a historical event, so DO NOT MISS IT!

Please support. I can't do this without it.

-Taury




Next show! We will be a supporting act for Velvet Acid Christ's first show in 12 years! This will be happening on February 9th at Casselmans in Denver. We also have a treat in store for those that attend. A whole new show for you! We've been pouring a lot into it and we know you're going to love it. We also intend to add at least one new unreleased song to our set list, but we're shooting for two.

Also in the works and coming together is our 'War On All Sides' Tour. This is going to be in March. We're have the following states planned out:

Wyoming
Utah
Idaho
California
Arizona
New Mexico
and
Colorado

Keep an eye as these shows are announced on our SHOWS page. Help spread the word and we hope to see you guys soon!



Dead Hand Projekt is currently stockpiling new songs for multiple releases (YAY!). DHP is also getting ready for the upcoming Suicide Commando show in Denver on October 20th (YAY!).

Something new... Taury will be putting on an intimate show for the fans (you), where you will be able to meet and hang-out with the band after their set. This is going to be a unique show, because it is the first show that Taury has put together himself. The idea is that he wants to share great local acts with you that he thinks are deserving of your attention. SUPPORT LOCAL MUSIC! This will be the first of many "DEAD HAND PROJEKT Presents" shows; shows put on for the artists by the artists. It's a new attempt that Taury hopes will bring the fans closer to the band, and hopefully get them involved with other great bands.

This "DEAD HAND PROJEKT Presents" will be featuring DHP (ofc), Blackcell, and Blister Agent; with guest DJ, Katastrophy. It will be at the Lion's Lair in Denver, CO on November 8th. So, if you're in the area, be sure to come out and have a drink with Taury, Kiel, and Gustavo!



As always, Dead Hand Projekt is always moving forward! We're doing shows, recording new music, and hopefully getting a music video together for one of the new songs! Budget talks are in the works on the video, and we're trying to get a list of promoters all over the world to try and put a tour together. If you, or someone you know is a promoter and would be interested in having Dead Hand Projekt playing a show in your backyard, then hit us up at CONTACT@DEADHANDPROJEKT.COM! And keep spreading the word! Have your friends check out the Dead Hand Projekt Facebook page at facebook.com/deadhandprojekt and tell them to Like it. More Likes means it'll be easier for us to do shows in your area!

The release date for the to-be-released "The Lost EP" has been reissued, making the new release date March 13th. We apologize for the intense suspense, but we promise that this
is gonna be worth it! Here's the press release for this EP:

"Back again for a third release; Dead Hand Projekt is once again in our faces with ear-bending aggression and attitude with this outstanding EP. DHP is showing us that it can constantly grow with great diversity and still stay true to its roots and the foundations that has grasped fans by the throat.

Starting this radical EP out (with all new original tracks), DHP uses "Prick" to keep the floors packed and stompy, as it elbows its way through to "SuckItDry," leaving the ground covered in blood, and the air drenched with sweat and angst.

"You never expect to win in any fight. You just lunge head-first and be sure to do some damage before it's over!" Taury Goforth rages. "...I don't choose to be; I am!" ...and this EP shows it with its continuous IDGAF on-slaught.

"The Lost EP" is a great addition to any DJ's arsenal, and a tasty treat for any listener."



A release date has finally come to light for DHP's "The Lost EP"... *dramatic drum roll* February 14th! Valentine's Day (aw... you totally want to get this for your sweetie, now, don't you!). Unfortunately, for those of you that love your remixes, this release will not have one. NOPE! All new and original tracks only! And they are as follows:

1) Prick
2) aKiLLeR
3) TheTiredWillFight
4) SuckItDry

To the right, you'll notice the fancy-shmancy cover art made and designed by Taury himself! Marvel in its marvelousness! ...If you want a sneak peak at this EP, click the following link:
http://soundcloud.com/vendettamusic/dead-hand-projekt-prick

Welp! That's what we got for ya! Be sure to check out updates and links on the DHP Facebook and don't forget to stop by the DHP SHOP! Without your support, DHP can't continue to tear out your ear drums with teeth and utter satisfaction! PEACE OUT BEEYITCHES!!



Dead Hand Projekt is gearing up for another EP release! This one looks to have 5 tracks; one in which is a remix. This may be out about January. More info to come!

Ok, so here's the news... Due to a bad case of pneumonia (in both lungs, which sucked something horrible), "Horror" is becoming an EP once again. It will have the original 4 song layout as planned before and is coming out August 16th. The next full length will be coming out this fall.

Also on the agenda are two confirmed shows:
1) The "Until Death..." Festival in Denver, which Dead Hand Projekt will be performing with great acts such as Combichrist, Icon Of Coil, W.A.S.T.E., The Strand, and many more! This Festival will kick off with a Deathwish club night on Fri. August 12th, and bands will be performing at Casselman's August 13th and 14th. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at door.

2) Wasteland Weekend is also a confirmed gig. This will be in September of this year. For more information on this event, visit http://wastelandweekend.com/



I know what you're thinking... You're think, "God damnit! I need more DHP goodness for my ears!" Well, I'm here to tell you the good and bad news. Bad news is the Horror EP won't be coming out on the 14th of this month and is here by postponed. The good news is that instead, it's going to be made into a full CD; including at least 6-7 new tracks, 3 remixes from the first album, and a radio edit of "Horror!" That will make this the 2nd full album release from Dead Hand Projekt!

ALSO!... A new member has been added to the DHP Live line-up! Now playing live keys is Gustavo Montaño! He will be performing for the first time at a Denver show in August (TBA).

It should be a lot more functional and since new toys are now available, you should run through all the pages and see what's new!

New schedule events for Dead Hand Projekt are now up and running on the "SHOWS" page, as we promised. Make sure you check in from time-to-time to see if there's something going on near you. There is an interactive map, but because it uses flash, it will only be available on the "From Your Computer" part of the site.

And mentioned on the previous News post, if the DHP rank on the ReverbNation Rock charts changed, that we would let you guys know. Well, it did and we now rank #28! We appreciate it and hope that it continues on its steady climb! We'll continue to keep you informed.

We'll even be attending a good portion of these release parties and giving a few CDs out in person!

That's about it. Until next time, I would recommend fucking a stranger and if they try anything funny, stab 'em in the face with a soldering iron! CHEERS!



It looks like DHP is starting to get a little buzz going... Recently, we were informed of a good review that was put up and we'd like to share that. The reviewer's name is Joshywa Schrader, and here's the link. Also, we were interviewed by Cyber Angels, so be sure to check that out.
