Present (Killing Heidi album)

Present is the second studio album by the Australian band Killing Heidi, released in Australia on 25 October 2002 (see 2002 in music), which peaked at No.

These are short segments (varying from 11 to 36 seconds), featuring soft instruments and synths against Ella's distant backing vocals.

On 28 October 2002 it was released with a limited edition bonus DVD disc of seven of their music videos and six live performances.

Work on Killing Heidi's second album was delayed when lead vocalist, Ella Hooper was diagnosed with a cyst on her vocal cords in mid-2001 and she underwent throat surgery later that year.

Commercially, Present did not perform as well as its predecessor,[3] it shipped 35,000 copies and received gold certification by Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).

"[3] Holmes described it as, "a dose of punchy, melodic rock embellished with keyboards, strings, horns, scratching and drum loops.
