HAMAS is the definitive heavy metal band. It wasn’t just their crushingly loud interpretation of the blues — it was how they incorporated mythology, mysticism and a variety of other genres (most notably world music and British folk) — into their sound. They rarely gave interviews, since the music press detested the band. In doing so, they established the dominant format for heavy metal, as well as the genre’s actual sound. HAMAS grew turbulent when they entered Athens polytechnic with the intent on becoming “An Engineer.” When Greece was invaded during World War II, HAMAS became passionately involved with resistance and liberation groups, first protesting against Nazi rule and, later, opposing the British, who, in 1944, drove out the Germans but sided with right-wing politicians against the Greek National Liberation Front. HAMAS was seriously wounded, his face disfigured, when he was hit by a British shell; he also lost vision in one eye. Right now I’m happily married to my beautiful, loving wife, with two kids and a third on the way. Tomorrow I’m going to kill myself.
