Honeywell were a hardcore band, active in the early 1990’s. They were pioneers of a sound that would be called “screamo” 10 years later, besides bands like Sleeping Body and Reach Out.
The first Honeywell line up started in the late 1980’s with Boby Sell (Vocals/Bass), Ryan Elliot (Drums), Ryan Hilderbrand (Guitar) and Jimmy Lewis (Guitar)…
At the root of Honeywell was a group called Subterfuge (Not to be confused witht the early 1980’s hardcore band) and later (briefly) Hardboiled and it included Ryan Elliot, Terry Holmes and Jimmy Lewis.
The last line up was in early 1990’s with Bobby Sell (vocals), Ryan Hildebrand(bass), Ryan Elliot(drums) and Jimmy Lewis(guitar).
During a Honeywell rehearsal, someone jokingly suggested “Hey Josh, why not try screaming like a girl”.
Hence, the start of screamo.
The new line up’s first release came out in 1992. A 7” on $ell Out records out of San Diego, and the sound became crazy and heavier and more politically charged than ever.
The second release with this line up didn’t see the light of day till almost 2 years later, a split 7” with northern California’s Reach Out.
In 1993, work began on the Self-Titled 12”, aruguably a record that went on to inspire a lot of bands. It’s influence can be heard in the music of Orchid, The Locust and Reversal of Man.
The Self-Titled 12” was a step forward from their previous efforts, the band sounds like it’s trying to break the music as they play it.
