Hacktivist - Unlike Us/Elevate

Well, kind of glad I got this up on the feed this morning.  The rap-rock/djent band that everyone is talking about, HACKTIVIST.  I am really digging their new music video "Unlike Us", a good blend of rap, metal and melody...



The track comes from their self titled EP release, which came out on November 12th, 2012.  Not bad from what I am hearing thus far.  It very much goes along with the tunes needed for a decent work out down in the gym.  You can check out my selection in previous AFGM articles:

"To progress, risk comes before reward, and convention must give way to invention.

In a scene saturated by sound-alike bands, the time has come to evolve or be left behind.
Hardwiring huge, devastating grooves with intelligent and insightful rhyme, Hacktivist are not afraid to split opinion. This is a sound to unite - a new way for a new age.

There's safety in numbers, but Hacktivist are carving a path of their own." (Hacktivst bio)



No word on a new album (yet) so it's safe to say this single and video "Elevate" will be a one off track for everyone to stay interested in the band.
