Head Like a Hole, often abbreviated as HLAH, is an influential rock band hailing from Wellington, New Zealand. The group was formed in 1990 and quickly gained a reputation for their energetic live performances and raw, gritty sound. Their musical style incorporates elements of punk, industrial, and hard rock, with a distinctive edge that has won them a dedicated following. Known for their confrontational attitude and often politically-charged lyrics, Head Like a Hole became a defining voice in the New Zealand rock scene of the 1990s.

Despite disbanding in 2000, the members' shared passion for music led to a reunion in 2009, followed by a resurgence of their career. Since then, Head Like a Hole has continued to release a compelling body of work with albums and singles such as "Goliath," "Blood Will Out," and "The Devil Makes Work for Idle Hands," to name a few, further cementing their legacy in the annals of Kiwi rock music. Their ability to evolve while staying true to their intense, unapologetic roots has ensured that Head Like a Hole's impact on New Zealand's music landscape endures, as they inspire new generations of rock enthusiasts and musicians alike.
