Welcome.

House of Pines is an alternative metal band from Edmonton, Alberta. Your hero, Leigh, started the group with a vision of low rhythms of baritone guitar influenced by other alternative metal bands such as KoRn, Chevelle, and the Deftones, but also with many southern rock, hard rock, and grunge influences – and as they play a multitude of indie venues, the bands – metal, hard rock, grunge, or otherwise – always add new influence.

Constant use of unusual time signatures combined with Leigh’s clean vocals and deafening, trash-can-dragging distortion, Jon’s European-metal-influenced double-bassness, and Andrew’s methodical super-down-tuned bass make for an unusual fusion. House of Pines aims to put the art into alternative metal, and add something new to the sub-genre.
