"Hammerhead" is Solace's half of 2004's "Blackmarket/Hammerhead" split EP, re-released in 2006 on limited edition 10 inch vinyl.

Recorded at New Aliance Studios in Boston, MA, "Hammerhead" found Solace "experimenting with some new styles to nice effect". [ [http://www.lollipop.com/article.php3?content=issue67/gdfu-solace.html Greatdayforup/Solace ] ] Two cover songs - a title track originally by Rare Bird and Link Wray's "Rumble" - were described as "bombastic", [ [http://www.lollipop.com/article.php3?content=issue67/gdfu-solace.html Greatdayforup/Solace ] ] "on fire" [ [http://www.monolith.gr/reviews/html/greatdayforup-solace-split.html Monolith ] ] , and sounding "like some New Wave of British Heavy Metal classic". [ [http://aquariusrecords.org/archives/254.html [ aquarius records new arrivals list #254 ] ] An original track ("Cement Stitches") harkens back to Solace's Punk and Hardcore roots [ [http://www.metroland.net/back_issues/vol_27_no38/recordings.html Metroland Online - Recordings ] ] with "cool harmonic breakdowns" [ [http://aquariusrecords.org/archives/254.html [ aquarius records new arrivals list #254 ] ] and vocals "that can go from a solemn Ian Curtis baritone to a wailing Chris Cornell banshee shriek".
