Hell Paso is the first EP by American post-hardcore band At the Drive-In,[1] released in November, 1994 through the band's own label, Western Breed Records. The EP is the band's inaugural release and the only to feature drummer Bernie Rincon before his death in early 1995.[2][3]
Later releases were done in 1995 and 2000 through Offtime Records. The EP was recorded by Mike Major in Rosewood Studios and saw a limited release. The band would play its first live show on October 14, 1994, at The Attic, a venue in El Paso, Texas, followed up by a show on the 15th at the Loretto High School Fair.[4] Desperate to book live shows, the band pretended to be a polka chapel band in order to appear on the local El Paso television broadcast Let's Get Real which proved to be successful.[5] On November 23, 1994 they played Grand Mox Turkin from the EP as well another as-of-yet unidentified song on the local broadcast. The program was hosted by Bill Lowery and featured interviews from Jarrett Wrenn, Cedric Bixler-Zavala, and Jim Ward.
