Well... as a new band... HMDB, before I was in it, released The Greater The Risk, produced by Naclerio, mixed by Freeman, and mastered by the guy from The Ataris. Then, three of the members from that era left, and Kenny (lead singer) and James (bass) wanted to regroup.

So, debut ep and first show as newly reformed band. I guess lol
