HYBERNOID (ENGLAND)

No one could ever put the finger on the Hybernoid sound; this is because it was pretty unique in mixing a Cocteau Twins style guitar with a scathing and aggressive distorted guitar melody. Guttural vocals pigeonholed the band into the extreme music scene, but this added to the unique elements of the sound and stirred up interest from 4 or 5 different record labels. Reviewers were always trying to pin a sound on Hybernoid; none really reflected what it was all about. Drawing elements from early hardcore punk (Amebix – No Sanctuary era), extreme metal ( Carcass and Bolt Thrower), indie (Chameleons, Cocteau Twins) gave the band a diverse grounding for their onslaught on the ‘underground’ music scene. Hybernoid released two demos, one video, three 7" singles and three albums. They also appear on about 10 compilation CDs.
