## History

H3llb3nt was formed in San Francisco by [Bryan Barton](/source/Bryan_Barton), [Charles Levi](/source/Charles_Levi), [Jared Louche](/source/Jared_Louche), [Jordan Nogood](/source/Jordan_Nogood) and [Eric Powell](/source/Eric_Powell_(musician)). The idea came about when Powell and Barton were touring with their bands, [16Volt](/source/16Volt) and haloblack respectively, and decided on collaborating on an [electronic music](/source/Electronic_music) project that and had less emphasis on guitars.[1] Their debut studio album, titled *[0.01](/source/0.01_(album))*, was released by [Fifth Colvmn Records](/source/Fifth_Colvmn_Records) on February 20, 1996.[2] *Sonic Boom* called *0.01* an "exquisitely tuned finite element state machine which hums along with a groove all of its own" and only criticized the album for being too short.[3] They followed up that album with 1998's *[Helium](/source/Helium_(H3llb3nt_album))*, released by [Re-Constriction Records](/source/Re-Constriction_Records) on February 16.[4][5] Their third album *[Hardcore Vanilla](/source/Hardcore_Vanilla)* was released by [Invisible](/source/Invisible_Records) on February 6, 2001.[6] The compilation *[Regurgitator](/source/Regurgitator_(album))* followed on May 29 of that year.[7]
