History

The group's logo

Formation and early period (1993–1996)

Superheist were formed in the Melbourne suburb of Frankston, Victoria in 1993. The original line-up was Rod "Berger" McLeod on lead vocals, DW Norton on guitar and backing vocals, Sean "Seanheist" Pentecost on drums, Fetah Sabawi on keyboards and samples, and Adrian Sudborough on bass guitar. The band were originally to be named Orgheist, which was inspired by European grind core bands. Their main influences were Faith No More, Fear Factory and Limp Bizkit. The name was altered to Superheist, McLeod supplied the "Super" while Norton provided the "Heist". McLeod and Norton had met at Overport primary school in Frankston, Victoria in 1980 and later attended Frankston High School together. Sabawi also attended Frankston High. Pentecost was a mutual friend who worked at a local music store, Frankston Guitar Village, and had previously played with Norton, Mcleod and Sudborough in the alt rock band Big Pop Monsters.

Superheist's first live performance was at the 21st Century Dance Club, Frankston supporting the Cosmic Psychos. In 1994 they issued a five-track extended play cassette, Apocalypse, which was recorded at Backbeach Studios in Rye, Victoria with Norton producing and released independently; it was later distributed via Warhead records, The band's early style was grindcore, à la Napalm Death, with synthesiser tones, samples and clean vocals amongst brutal blast beats and death growls. The band tempered their extreme metal with pop and nu-wave melodies and hook lines.

The EP received positive reviews and the band toured nationally. Later that year Sudborough was replaced on bass guitar by Adam "Donut" Donath. They continued touring, alongside In:Extremis, Damaged and Beanflipper. Superheist became a regular on Melbourne's grind scene and played at The GB and The Hell Club. In December 1995 they performed at the annual Metal for the Brain festival, Canberra, which raised funds for the National Brain Injury Foundation. They returned for the 1996 festival, but Pentecost had already left the group due to losing interest in extreme metal. Aaren "Suds" Suttil (1974–2006) of Dreadnaught joined on drums.

Chrome Matrix (1997–1998)

Main article: Chrome Matrix

In September 1997, the band signed to Melbourne's Shock Records' subsidiary label Cutthroat and released a five-track EP, Chrome Matrix. This EP demonstrated their shift from grindcore to industrial style, death metal. More samples and clean vocals were introduced with greater emphasis on keyboards and loops. The band experimented with re-mixes on "Platinum Matrix". The track "Subhuman" showcased the versatility of McLeod's vocals and clever lyrics. The EP had two hidden tracks from Apocalypse, "Retarded Barbie" and "Perfect World". During the recording Donath severed his thumb in an industrial accident and was unable to finish his parts. The remaining bass guitar parts fwere completed by Norton, while Donath recovered. Local Melbourne artist Barney "Barnaby Butters" Hughes (deceased) joined the group on bass guitar for several live shows.

More line-up changes ensued with Suttil focussing on Dreadnaught so he was replaced on drums by Adam Messenger (of In:Extremis) for live shows and recording tracks, "Times Killing" and "Pocket Full of Lies", which later appeared on a live album, New Rare Live (2004). In late 1998, Pentecost rejoined the group on drums. Their new sound continued the shift away from grindcore and industrial death metal to a nu metal. They prepared material for another EP, 8 Miles High and developed Superheist's bouncing metal sound. The post Chrome Matrix work included early versions of "Karma", "Fluid" and "Syncin' In". Chris Ainsworth (Back Beach Studios' owner Mark Rachelle's friend) temporarily provided keyboards and samples while Sabawi travelled overseas. Superheist played shows along the east coast. The band struggled to maintain audience numbers at their live shows. Also in 1998 Superheist announced Simon "Si" Durrant, of In:Extremis, as the band's bass guitarist replacing Donath, who never regained his full playing ability.

8 Miles High and the beginning of commercial success (1998–2000)

Superheist performing

Sabawi returned to Australia in 1998 and rejoined the band. They released two singles, "Two-Faced (Check Your Head Up)" (1998) and "Karma" (1999) and performed on the Vans Warped Tour. Then they supported Fear Factory on their Australian east coast tour. In June 1999 Superheist toured nationally backing Sepultura, Durrant caused hundreds of dollars of damagein a hotel room in Brisbane. The band were investigated by Queensland Police and subsequently, Durrant left the band to return to Adelaide where he joined a short-lived project, Screwface:13. He was replaced in August by Melbourne session bass guitarist, Drew Dedman (ex Iconklast), who had met DW (by this time a studio producer) while recording bass tracks at Back Beach Recording studio. A brief East Coast and South Australian tour followed. With the band's sound changing, some fans struggled to connect with their new direction. Returning to Melbourne, they filmed their first music video for a proposed single, "Have Your Way". Although never officially released, it was distributed by Shock as promotion for the later releases.

In October 1999, Superheist recorded a cover version of "Walls" by the Flowers at the ABC studios in South Melbourne. It was featured by national youth radio station Triple J on Australian music month, in November. The group supported the Screaming Jets, returned to Canberra for Metal for the Brainh and a handful of local and east coast shows. They performed at the 1999 Falls Festival, New Year's Eve, which had them showcase their new sound to a larger audience. At Shock Records, Shagpile label was discontinued and Superheist had neither the budget nor time to record new tracks with Dedman for a full studio album, so 8 Miles High had been down to eight tracks on an EP in January 2000. Although Dedman appeared on its artwork and was credited as bass player, all the bass tracks were played by either Durrant or Norton. The track "Pulse" received airplay on Triple J and was included on a various artists' compilation album, Full Metal Racket. Also in January, Dedman joined as a full-time member providing the band's rhythm section with a better sound.

8 Miles High tracks made an impact on the Australian alternative charts, "Pulse", "Two-Faced", "Karma" and "Have Your Way" received significant airplay. This led to a support slot for Grinspoon on their Australian tour in February 2000. This tour established the band on a national level. As a result they were signed by talent manager Gregg Donovan (Grinspoon, Airbourne). "Pulse" was shelved as a single in favour of a remixed, re-released version of "Two Faced". The band had a music video filmed in Melbourne, however the single's cover used a new band logo, in the style of US nu-metal band, Limp Bizkit. This occurred without the band's permission and was removed from circulation upon the band's complaints. Superheist's relationship with Shock Records was severely tested by the label making poor decisions without consultation.

The Prize Recruit (2000–2002)

Main articles: The Prize Recruit, Crank the System, and Bullet

In mid-2000 Superheist members began writing and recording their debut album, The Prize Recruit (April 2001). Producer Kalju Tonuma, (Bodyjar, Hunters and Collectors, 28 Days), worked at Sing Sing Studios, Melbourne. Vocals and overdubs for the album were recorded at a beach house in Portsea Victoria. "Crank the System" was released in November 2000 as its lead single and their first on Shock Records' new subsidiary, Pivotal. It peaked at No. 45 on the ARIA singles chart. "Bullet", the second single, appeared in March 2001, which also reached No. 45. It became a popular live track for Superheist. The Prize Recruit debuted at No. 12 on the ARIA Albums Chart. A reviewer for Rolling Stone described it as "what the new heavy breed should sound like". Theprp.com website's Wookubus felt the album is "a very lush and colorful ride that the listener can figuratively slip right through, with little to no snags. Sure there are a few moments where things become a little too overtly radio friendly or sound a bit commercially focused, but with the bulk of the material included representing an eclectic blend of energetic modern metal crunch, such things are easy enough to overlook".

The album's third single, "Step Back"/"Slide" (July), had less chart success – it reached the top 100. In August Superheist supported Eminem at his Sydney and Melbourne concerts. Superheist played to over 25,000 people in two nights; their popularity was high: they undertook a 40 show Australian tour. At the 2001 ARIA Music Awards Tonuma was nominated for Producer of the Year and Engineer of the Year for his work on the album. In March of the following year, a Shock Records representative claimed that the label had spent $250–300,000 on the album and despite sales approaching 35,000 units they were short of covering expenses. In mid-2001 Superheist announced their first US tour was due from late October. With US management provided by Gary Avila or Bigtime Management Paparoach, they based themselves in West Hollywood. The group performed at SIR Studios in Hollywood in front of record company executives and journalists. The band played a tight and energetic set. Onlookers were impressed and over the next few weeks a bidding war began for the band's US recording deal. With commitments back in Australia, they reurned home on 5 September 2001. However due to the September 11 attacks all negotiations and communications with perspective record labels were delayed until February 2002. By then, interest in Superheist had dissipated. The band had missed their opportunity; unrest set in amongst members.

Even still, song writing continued. Norton moving the sound away from "rap rock" to a more straight rock metal sound. This did not sit well with vocalist McLeod. Further strain on the relationship occurred as McLeod distanced himself from the band. In a board meeting set up by management McLeod stated he would "only play the big shows and the band would be dropped by the record company should he decide to leave". In mid-November Superheist was set to hit the road with the launch of the Channel V Music Bus. The night before the tour was to begin, the band was played a warm-up show at an all ages event at Berwick youth centre. Mcleod claimed to be unwell on the night and refused to go on stage, the event was sold out and Superheist refused set to cancel the show at the last minute. The band desperately looked for a fill in vocalist. They first approached Wes from Another Race and then finally Joey Biro from one of the earlier supports, From the Inside, not only did Joey know all the Superheist songs, delivered an amazing performance that shocked the crowd and the band. McLeod refuse to go on the Channel V Music Bus tour so Superheist invited Joey Biro to be his replacement for the shows. The next few days Biro stayed on with the band and launched the channel V music bus through regional Victoria and NSW. With live national TV broadcasts revealing a fill in singer and shocking fans across the country. During the chaotic week, played out on national television, it became clear to the rest of the band that McLeod no longer shared the commitment and enthusiasm and the band no longer trusted him as their lead singer. He was given a final ultimatum and after consultation with management and record label was fired from the band and replaced by Biro that same week. In 2002 Superheist was to play every major festival in Australia including a main stage slot on the coveted BIG DAY OUT. The shows were a huge success with Biro winning over the fans with his heartfelt performances and powerful voice.

Identical Remote Controlled Reactions (2002–2004)

Following the hugely successful Big Day Out festival in January 2002, the group began work on their second album, Identical Remote Controlled Reactions (September 2002). Recorded at Melbourne's Sing Sing Studios and co-produced by dw Norton and Adam Rhodes (The Dirty Three), the album peaked at No. 20 on the national ARIA Chart.

The lead single, "7 Years", had appeared in May 2002, which peaked at No. 29 – the group's highest-charting single. It was followed in August by a semi-acoustic rock ballad, "A Dignified Rage", which peaked at No. 50. At the ARIA Music Awards of 2002, Norton and Rhodes were nominated for Engineer of the Year for "A Dignified Rage". IRCR introduced new vocalist Joey Biro in bold fashion. The sound was generally heavier than The Prize Recruit but showed a maturity in the songwriting and playing. Biro's emotive vocal style lending to a more epic version of Superheist's bouncing heavy rock riff style. In July 2003 the band went to America for a second time with the hope of recapturing the interest lost after 11 September. The band played solid shows at the Viper Room and the Roxy and several showcases but failed to get that elusive major International record deal they had come so close to only a year earlier. The dejected members returned to Australia. At this point something clearly changed within the band. After a run of not so successful east coast tours and spot shows late in the year, Superheist was dropped by Step2 Artist management and internal chaos was rife amongst the band. After almost 2 years of solid touring, back to back albums and a lead vocalist change the cracks were starting to appear. The band played all major rock festivals late in 2002 and finished the year with a disastrous New Year's Eve show in Hastings, Victoria. Bassist Drew Dedman, feeling disillusioned after a tumultuous few months, quit the band that night and returned home to North coast NSW refusing to speak to the band for the first few months of 2003. Nevertheless, the band continued to write and record demos for the third album without a bass player, Norton recorded the bass on the demos during this time. In 2003 (add date) Superheist were asked to play the Crusty Demons of Dirt Nine Lives Tour, after some lengthy discussion the band was able to persuade Dedman to return to Melbourne and rejoin the band for the tour and begin writing and rehearsing again. On 8 August 2003, the band recorded a live set a The Corner Hotel in Richmond, Victoria that was set to be released as their first live album. This gig would later be released as disc 2 of New, rare, Live. Superheist were initially billed to appear at Metal for the Brain on 20 December, however, in October they cancelled their appearance. The band's final tour was in North Queensland during December, the demoing of the new album was taking a long time, failure to get new management on board, inconsistent performances and tensions between Norton and Biro flared to breaking point in the final month of touring. Superheist returned to Melbourne, Biro went AWOL and was eventually fired from the band in January. More demoing was done in early 2004 but to no avail. In February 2004 Norton announced that Superheist had disbanded. During their career Superheist had achieved significant chart success with four singles appearing in the Top 50 and both of its studio albums entering the Top 20. Superheist was seen as a trail blazer for heavy music in Australia. Taking heavy down tuned guitars to the mainstream masses.

New, Rare, Live and post Heist (2004–2015)

With a stack of unreleased material and the demos for the third album sitting gathering dust, Norton contacted Shock records with the idea of releasing the songs as a "goodbye" record. The demos were completed and mixed by Norton on his own at Backbeach Studios. The double album was compiled using unreleased material from 8 Miles High, The Prize Recruit and IRCR eras as well as the unheard new demos. Norton also added a track called "The Road" that was written in collaboration with Cam Baines of Bodyjar and Phil Rose of Nursery Crimes. Baines recorded the vocals for this track in Norton's "Cabin in the woods" in a remote part of Victoria. "The Road" opens the album followed by four of the new demo tracks and a number of rareities including the title track of the 2000 EP 8 Miles High that was omitted from the original release. In November 2004 the posthumous compilation album, New, Rare, Live, was released by Shock Records as a 2-CD set. Artwork was contributed by Melbourne designer Richard DeSilva who also worked with the band on Identical Remote Controlled Reactions. There has been three attempts of reformation since the band's breakup in 2004. In 2006 Norton and Dedman started demoing new tracks with Matt "Skitz" Sanders from Damaged on drums, Seanheist had injured his knee and ankle and was unable to commit to recording at this time. Three new songs were recorded but were never fully finished and were soon shelved. The second attempt at reformation was in 2008 with the lineup of Biro, Norton, Seanheist and Dedman rehearsing some old songs and jamming new material a handful of times. Personality clashes, old grievances and just bad timing just made the reformation impossible to go ahead. In 2012 All five members of the band from the IRCR line-up finally caught up and met at the album's 10-year Anniversary party at Norton's bar (Whole Lotta Love) in Melbourne, talks of reforming were once again on the table, but nothing eventuated.

Norton went on to form Walk The Earth with good friend Richard De Silva. The band consisted of two members of Melbourne grind legends Jamie Ludbrook and Matt "Skitz" Sanders. The critically acclaimed "Rampant Calamities" EP was released on Norton's Faultine Records label in 2005 and the band shot to the top of the heavy music scene in Australia touring nationally with Mudvayne, Slipknot and Hatebreed. With interest from Roadrunner Records in the U.S. the band was set for big things. Tensions between the band a vocalist Jamie Ludbrook ultimately lead to the front man's departure and after trying various other singers and recording the unreleased EP "A Winsome Savage" with frontman and good friend Matt "Cuz" Curry, the band struggled to find time for another serious attempt and in 2009 went into hiatus. Norton took time out from music, retiring from studio producing in 2011 and going into business. He is the co-owner of East Brunswick Tattoos and Whole Lotta Love bar in Melbourne. He is also the director of several successful companies. In 2014 after a trip to Egypt he returned to music. Writing and recording material for his solo project RIFLEMAN. dw Norton is dedicated vegan and has tentatively titled his solo album I Vegan. Drew Dedman went on to form an improvised jazz band, The Lounge Machine in 2004, and played with Melbourne drum and bass act K-Oscillate in 2005–2006. In 2008 he reunited with Joey Biro and they formed the band metal core band Lanstrum. This short lived project released 3 demo singles. Exceptional Remedy, The Eclipse and One the Same. The band split up during the recording of their debut album in 2010 due to ongoing personality clashes. Dedman has since played with experimental electronic band XXIII and in late 2015 joined Melbourne rockers the Arcane Saints.

Return and Ghosts of the Social Dead (2016–2019)

On 26 June 2016, Superheist announced their return on their Instagram page with a new album titled Ghosts of the Social Dead, released on 28 October.. It was also announced a few weeks later that former Electrik Dynamite drummer Benny Clark had joined as a replacement for original drummer, Pentecost, who could not commit to the bands reformation for personal reasons.

In August, the band released the first single and video from the album, "Hands Up High", and revealed Ezekiel Ox (Full Scale Revolution, ex-Mammal, Over-reactor) as their new vocalist. The filmclip was produced and directed by Gareth McGilvray. A second single, "Fearing Nothing", was released on 7 October. The track was recorded and produced by Jay Baumgardner at NRG studios in North Hollywood. The music video was produced and directed by Brian Cox from Flarelight Films, it was shot in a house in the Hollywood Hills.

What followed was a successful capital cities tour, some shows sold out. During this tour the filmed their third clip for the album, the song "Wolves in Your Headspace".

In early 2017, Superheist began announcing new shows interstate and the artwork for the 'Scorched Earth' national tour appeared.

In late January 2017, Benny Clark was asked to leave the band, Dedman then quit Superheist to pursue what his partner described on social media as a "bromance" with Clark.

Norton and Ox will continue to write the band's material, and have completed writing the band's next single " Raise Hell" which will be released in late February 2017. On 1 February 2017, Via the Music.com.au, Norton and Ox announced that previous member Si Durrant would be taking over bass duties, joining live members Gotcher and Sorenson on tour, with the band fulfilling their announced QLD tour dates.

Two days later Superheist announced via their Facebook page that John Sankey will be the new drummer for the upcoming tour, getting the biggest attention the band has ever received.

On 24 April 2018, the band announced on their Facebook a "Now & Then" package release that included a Remastered version of their demo "Apocalypse", a new six-track EP titled "Lights" and a greatest hits album titled The History Between Us; all these were released Friday, 27 April.

Sidewinder and departure of Ezekiel Ox (2019–2020)

On 3 April 2019, the band released a new song titled "The Riot" and had announced that their fourth album Sidewinder would be released on 3 May 2019. The new album will be the first on new label Black Mountain Music created by Superheist founder dw Norton. Recorded and mixed at Norton's Black Mountain Sound Studio, Sidewinder is a continuation from the "Raise Hell" release with its use of 8 string guitars. In early April 2019 Superheist embarked on the inaugural HeistFest tour around Australia along with side Alaskan heavyweights 36 Crazyfists. The current line up of Norton, Ox, Gotcher, Sankey and Durrant has proven to be the most dynamic combination both live and in the studio in the band's 25-year history.

On 1 July 2020, Ezekiel Ox announced through his social media pages that he had left Superheist. No further explanation was given.

Original Superheist drummer Sean Pentecost died on 18 August 2020.
