It seems as though it’s late 90s alt-rock reunion year. First the supposed Far reunion coming up in mid-October and now the ferocious will be reuniting to tear up the Key Club in LA. HWP was doing the Flyleaf/Kittie angst-rock way before it was generating any attention. Drawing influences from The Cure, Sepultura, Tool, and Portishead, Human Waste Project was a shining star in a mess of cookie cutter nu-metal acts trying to cash in on the now squeezed-dry genre. The band consists of theSTART lead vocalist Aimee Echo, Mike Tempesta on guitar, Jeff Schartoff on bass, and Scott Ellis on drums. They only released one now discontinued album entitled e-Lux on Hollywood Records; which is filled with your fair share of heavy riffs, aggressive vocals, and experimentation. They played Ozzfest and toured with bands like Incubus, Helmet, Deftones and Sublime before their demise in 1998.
