History

Cruel Hand formed in Portland, Maine,[1] in 2006, originally as a side project of the punk band Outbreak.[2] In 2007 they released their debut album Without a Pulse, on 6131 Records. They played shows around the U.S. with Trash Talk and The Mongoloids, touring the United States three times and a full European tour. Cruel Hand then signed with Bridge 9 for their second album, Prying Eyes,[3] which was recorded at Getaway Recording Studios and God City Studios in 2008.[4][5] Cruel Hand released a self-titled 7" EP in 2010 featuring a song from their third album, Lock & Key and an unreleased track.
