About HellYeah

Hellyeah is a heavy metal supergroup formed on the ashes of several other disbanded metal heavy hitters. Guitarist Greg Tribbett and vocalist Chad Gray are both members of the band Mudvayne. Tom Maxwell (guitar) is the former guitarist and founder of Nothingface. Both Bob Kakaha (bass) and the legendary drummer Vinnie Paul Abbott were members of Damageplan, the band Abbott formed with his late brother, Dimebag Darrell, after the two departed from Pantera. Kakaha is a replacement bassist. The original bassist, Jerry Montano, who recorded the self-titled debut album parted ways with the bands after an altercation with former Nothingface band mate Maxwell.

The band's debut, Hellyeah entered the Billboard 200 at #9. Hellyeah has been touring in support of Hellyeah since May 2007. After the success of their singles, "You Wouldn't Know" and "Alcohaulin' Ass", the bands triumph over preconceived supergroup notions has become apparent. On November 13th, 2007, Hellyeah released an exclusive DVD, "Below the Belt."
