Hella @ The Echo, 4/13Sacramento's Hella has upended expectations since its early days as an instrumental prog-spazz duo with one of the most obscenely gifted drummers in rock. But it's a testament to the band's restless creativity that the new album, There's No 666 In Outer Space, manages to merge the titanic chops of drummer Zach Hill and guitarist Spencer Seim with a proper band, with a vocalist and keyboardist and second guitarist that sorta kinda play real songs (sorta kinda). No question, the new five-piece Hella lineup is more an expansion of the duo than a complete conceptual overhaul. Still it's a relief to know that there are a few other musicians in the universe who can hang with Hill and Seim. (ER)
