  • hHead were a Canadian alternative rock band in the 1990s. The band consisted of Noah Mintz, Brendan Canning and a succession of drummers. They were originally known as Head, but added the second h after discovering that another band was already recording as Head. The band's first album, Fireman, was released independently in 1992. It became popular on Canadian campus radio, and the band landed a contract with IRS Records in 1994, releasing their second album, Jerk, that year. However, IRS Records was at this point in financial trouble, and the band was not well-promoted. The band then moved to the Canadian independent label Handsome Boy Records for their final album, Ozzy. The band broke up in 1997. First Mintz left, then Canning, leaving only the drummer, Jason Ray. Mintz is now a mastering engineer for artists such as Hayden and The Dears, and has recorded solo material as Noah's Arkweld. Canning joined By Divine Right for that band's third album Bless This Mess, and then formed Broken Social Scene with Kevin Drew. Broken Social Scene's album Bee Hives includes a song titled "hHallmark", alluding to the unique typography of hHead's name.
  • hHead lub HHead – kanadyjski zespół rockowy aktywny w latach 1991 - 1997 grający rock alternatywny i indie rock. Pierwotna nazwa grupy brzmiała Head, Canning dodał w nazwie zespołu drugie h po tym, jak dowiedział się, że inna grupa nagrywa jako Head. Pierwszy album zespołu, Fireman, został wydany niezależnie w 1992. Album był popularny w radiach studenckich. Zespół podpisał w 1994 kontrakt z wytwórnią I.R.S. Records. W tym samym roku grupa wydała sój drugi album, Jerk. W tym czasie wytwórnia znajdowała się w kłopotach finansowych i była blisko bankructwa i promocja albumu została zawieszona po kilku dniach od wydania. W związku z tym zespół zerwał kontrakt i związał się z wytwórnią Handsome Boy Records. Grupa rozpadła się w 1997. Zespół opuścił najpierw Mintz, następnie Canning - pod koniec 1997 jedynym członkiem zespołu był dopiero przyjęty perkusista Jason Ray.
