Perpetual Hype Engine is a
Detroit based band consisting of four members: Sal Aiello, Kurt Harms, Dave Curry and Joe
Smith. The band formed in 1997. Sal and Kurt were playing in Suiciety for many years, and
Dave and Joe joined them. These guys are very dedicated to their band and are very
grounded in what they are working to achieve together. Their focus has been writing music
and recording in the studio, and they have managed to create their own brand of music,
which can be classified as melodic, hard rock, alternative, heavy metal.... Whatever, they
are a fresh sound. P.H.E. has made a name for themselves in Detroit, and has had a
phenomenal response from their home town, as well as from fans around the globe and the
music industry. Detroit has produced some of the best talented musicians over the years,
and P.H.E. is nothing less than one of Detroit's finest. Last year, they won a contest
from Musicblitz.com, and were invited to Texas for a Music Conference, where only 21 bands
from around the world were chosen. P.H.E. played before a panel of judges, with Wayne
Kramer from the MC5 as one of the judges, and recieved all thumbs up, returning home to
Detroit with a recording contract.

- Front man, Sal Aiello has been writing lyrics
and music for almost two decades and has proven himself as a quality musician. Aiello is
intensely creative and is the master mind behind P.H.E. From their band uniforms, unique
stage props to the lyrics he writes so extrordinary. He creates ideas that work, and
people remember the music when they hear it, they remember the show, they remember the
performance. Aiello has come along way from the days of "Heety Peety", and has
had many accomplishments in his musical career, including creating and playing the guitar
riff for the British band " Republica" , on the song "Ready To Go".
Forming the band "Suiciety", practicing in
garages and rental spaces, playing in any and all bars they could book, Aiello never
stopped making music. He later joined a band called "Powertrain", with friends
from other bands. Powertrain soon proved to be too much, while he was concentrating on his
own band and writing his own music. The band Powertrain is still going strong with front
man Aaron Warmoth |
When Perpetual Hype Engine came together, it seemed as though,
with the years of trial and error, Aiello had formed the kind of band that he had worked
so hard to become. Every member of the band realizes and is willing to put the time, hard
work and talent into Perpetual Hype Engine. The guys have all become good friends and a
team, as well as a band.
PHE has taken
on many projects and played many live shows over the last couple years. They are currently
spending alot of time in the studio working on new material. They collaborated on the song
"Let's Go All The Way," with ICP, which is an old Sly Fox remake. The song is on
ICP's Bizzare album. PHE and ICP made the video for this song, which has been added to the
MTV play list.
As of April 2001, PHE has made some changes
and has new band members. I will be updating my site in June, with all the info and inside
scoop.
