About Will Haven

Will Haven, a noise metal band hailing from Sacramento, California, formed in 1995. Originally named after a self-created character, the band began with the release of a six-track demo. The quartet later signed to Revelation and released their debut self-titled seven-track EP in 1996, which garnered positive reviews. They released their first full-length album, El Diablo, in 1997, which brought them attention and an expanding fan base. Their third album, WHVN, was released in 1999, along with a track called The Regulator for the Bad Brains’ Never Give In tribute album. They also toured with Deftones throughout Europe during this time.

2001-2007

In 2001, the band released the critically acclaimed Carpe Diem and went on a world tour, headlining shows in the US, UK, and Japan. Will Haven played the Vans Warped Tour in Australia and released a DVD called Foreign Films, featuring their last-ever show at The Capitol Garage, a small coffeehouse in their hometown of Sacramento, along with a wealth of footage from their final tour. Following the tour, singer Grady Avenell left the band to raise a family and attend college.

On October 12, 2005, Will Haven reformed and began writing new songs with Avenell. The band planned to release a five-song EP with B-sides, but they ultimately decided to put out a full-length album. The band, now a five-piece with the addition of guitarist Cayle Hunter, went to Los Angeles to record 12 songs for the new album. Will Haven returned to the stage in January 2006 with a show in Sacramento’s Boardwalk. In March of the same year, they traveled to the UK for a co-headlining tour with Crowbar. Second guitarist Cayle Hunter was fired by the band and focused on his band, Armed for the Apocalypse.

On February 19, 2007, Will Haven played a free show at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, announcing that Avenell had left the band and had been replaced by Jeff Jaworski, the vocalist for Sacramento punk band Red Tape. The band went to Europe with Deftones and released the album The Hierophant on June 18, 2007, in the UK and June 19, 2007, in the US. The band intended to tour the new material later that year.
