HELLYEAH were a heavy metal supergroup out of Dallas, and the idea for them went back to 2000 on the Tattoo the Earth tour, though busy schedules kept pushing it back. In the summer of 2006 the band finally got serious: Chad Gray on lead vocals, Tom Maxwell and Greg Tribbett on guitars, Vinnie Paul on drums and Jerry Montano on bass. They recorded their self-titled debut at Chasin' Jason studio in Dimebag Darrell's backyard, and it sold 45,000 copies out of the gate, good for a number 9 debut on the Billboard 200.

That record is groove metal with its boots on the table: "You Wouldn't Know" stomps and "Alcohaulin' Ass" swaggers like the last round at a Texas roadhouse. Bob Zilla took over on bass, then Kyle Sanders, and Blood for Blood, in 2014, tightened the screws with "Hush" and "Moth", big, bruising riffs under Gray's rasping, wounded roar.

Unden!able, in 2016, brought "Love Falls" and "I Don't Care Anymore", and Welcome Home in 2019 closed the book with its title track. By the end the lineup had Gray, Maxwell and Sanders alongside guitarist Christian Brady and drummer Roy Mayorga, and with the debut followed by five further studio albums spread from 2010 to 2019, the band went on hiatus in 2021.
