And today’s story about Hacktivist is….
The wait is finally over, as trailblazing five-piece HACKTIVIST stream their long-awaited debut album Outside The Box ahead of its official release via UNFD on 04 March.
Hacktivist have been fighting their way from Milton Keynes to the mainstage since 2011 and now it’s time for the world to listen up. Outside The Box is a 12 track barrage of low-tuned riffs, street-smartrhymes with huge hooks and grooves, resulting in a powerful record with a sound that is 100% their own. Guest performances are present from Rou Reynolds of Enter Shikari, Jamie Graham of Heart Of A Coward, Astroid Boys and cyber rhymer Jot Maxi; a highly diverse collection of artists onlyHacktivist could bring together.
The band comment:
“It’s so f***ing exciting that we’re finally able to reveal what we’ve been working on for so long – Outside The Box is our debut album and we couldn’t be prouder of it. It’s the sound of five mates against the world (plus a few other of our insanely talented friends) and believe me when I say this is only the beginning.”
