HAZMAT are a dynamic grunge/dreamo band hailing from the dragons’ nest Wrexham, Wales but are currently based out of Liverpool. HAZMAT is composed of Iwan Douglas (vocals/rhythm guitar), Luca Visetti (lead guitar), Owen Brown (bass guitar) & Matt Birnie (drums). Drawing inspiration from the classic alternative sounds of the 90’s and infusing it with heavy shoegaze fuzz riffs, the HAZMAT blend creates a captivating and dark dreamscape. Having made a mark on numerous hot venues across the UK scene, HAZMAT has performed in multiple cities across the UK, captivating audiences who share their love for heavy & spacey noise.

HAZMAT’s release ‘Pulling Away From Me’ is the first of eagerly anticipated material from HAZMAT since 2022’s ‘DOOM’ EP. Moving towards a more melodic and ambient sound, Pulling Away From Me’ encapsulates and develops the established HAZMAT sound, with cavernous verses, intricate guitar layers and a gargantuan chorus. ‘Pulling Away From Me’ delivers a message of raw emotion, exposing feelings of being trapped inside a decaying relationship, allowing that person to fade away. The track came to life in Liverpool’s prestigious Motor Museum studio, produced by Ben Harper and mixed by industry heavyweight Al Groves (Bring Me The Horizon, Blanket, The Mysterines) The band’s partnership with Groves is a match made in heaven for this track, with Groves’ passion and ability for larger than life rock productions elevating the band’s sound to new sonic heights.

‘Pulling Away From Me’ marks a sea change in HAZMAT’s artistic journey and captures the energy and sonics presented in their recent live performances across the UK. This release is sure to set the stage for a new, more refined era of the group ahead of what will be an explosive set at this year’s FOCUS Wales, where they will be performing on the main stage in support of The Mysterines.

‘Pulling Away From Me’ is available to listen to now across all streaming platforms!
