Hassan I Sabbah was a short lived, yet legendary, Emo-Violence band that originated during a chance meeting of its core members in 1999 in Boston, MA who shared a love for bands like Heroin and Mohinder.
Existing for less than a year, Hassan I Sabbah canceled, or vanished, from more shows than they actually played and ended without ever releasing a full album - yet the ink they left in the ledger of New England Hardcore persists. Their influence and live performances were chaotic, powerful and the stuff of messageboard lore.
‘Untitled’ serves as the defining document of Hassan I Sabbah, archiving all of the known recordings, photographs, and show posters, which took years to find and collect. Produced by Kurt Ballou (Converge) at God City and remixed/remastered by Jack Shirley at The Atomic Garden. The release is complete with a 12-page retrospective zine with thoughts and reflections from the band on their short history and is accompanied by photographs and poster art.
Although they were only active from October 1999 through August of 2000, the legacy of Hassan I Sabbah is a lasting one.
