Untitled

(həd)pe is the debut album by American punk rock band Hed PE. It was released on August 12, 1997 by Jive Records, and has sold over 100,000 copies.

Album information

Due to the label's contractual terms and the disappointing sales of the album, the band found themselves unable to repay the cash advances given to them by Jive.

Jahred Shane is quoted as saying "We had these romantic visions of the music industry, and we thought it would be cool to be a punk band on a rap label. So we fulfilled that dream, but it was also probably the worst thing that could have happened. We've had offers from Sony and others that we can't take because we owe Jive so much money."

Reception

In his review of the album, Allmusic's Steve Huey wrote that Hed PE " rhythmically looser and funkier than many similar rap-metal bands, although comparisons to Rage Against the Machine are still apt. There are some slow and/or unfocused moments but overall, its aggression will probably play well with late-'90s metal and punk fans."

Album cover

The cover is an illustration of the music being belted out by Hed PE who are seen in the middle playing a concert, while a barrage of music is exploding outwardly.
