Hyro - Ghetto AmbianceHyro – Ghetto Ambiance

During the 90’s I was a huge rap fan but over recent years the rap scene has been pretty much non exciting and very unappealing but all that could be about to change thanks to brand new rap artist Hyro De Hero and his rap band Hyro who are set to release their single ‘Ghetto Ambiance’ very soon.

‘Ghetto Ambiance’ heavily sounds like Rage Against The Machine from the heavily Zack De La Rocha influenced vocals to the bouncy basslines and crunching guitar riffs but considering that the band features ex members of At The Drive In, Sparta, The Mars Volta and Blood Brothers you wouldn’t expect anything other than a mad punk-funk-rap combo which works extremely well and lets out major oomph in the process.

The B-side is ‘Man In The City’ which is a more pure full on rap track, the vocals are strong sounding with a squeaky tinge to them, the song is quite catchy with beats a plenty on offer, it is totally different from the main single and shows the diverse sound that Hyro are going for.

Overall Hyro are here to take the rap and rock scene by storm and are out to get that cross over effect and feel that bands such as Cypress Hill have done in the past and only time will tell if it pays of, and for the time being I really recommend you checking out ‘Ghetto Ambiance’.

4/5
