Zimmers Hole are no strangers to the underground metal community, as the lineup features Byron Stroud (Fear Factory, SYL) on bass and Jed Simon (Tenet, SYL) on guitars, along with Chris 'The Heathen' Valagao (vocals) and Steve Wheeler (drums).

Born in 1991, this band (known by many as just "The Hole") has been Byron and Jed's significant other band when not busy with Strapping Young Lad or Fear Factory. In the beginning, it was always just a way of spending the weekend drinking far too much and writing absurd songs. As time went on, the group "matured" somewhat, and two remarkable albums (Bound By Fire and Legion of Flames), a series of successful tours and a string of absolutely unforgettable shows soon followed, putting the mighty ZH on the lips of many.

Byron and Jed further comment: "Now with ZH signing a fresh, new deal with Century Media, we have decided to give this band our full and undivided attention. No more 'side-project' status here; the men of the Hole are fired up like a city on fire and entered Vancouver's famed Armoury Studios begin tracking the new release. This next album will be Zimmers Hole's first release with proper worldwide distribution, and they are determined to make a definitive statement: Beware of The Hole.
