Hella fuse mathy technicality with noise sensibilities to create a persistent cacophony. The drumming is a wonder to behold, but Hella do unfortunately stray a bit too close for comfort into the wank category, and their noisiness doesn't exactly pull things back like they may have intended. To backtrack a little, though, the injection of noise elevates a Tero Melos-esque soundscape into something akin to the lovechild of TDEP and Covet. Plus, there's plenty of NorCal love to be had.
