Hacktivist

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. Featuring ex-members of Heart of a Coward and Margot Kidder, hard-hitting, raw energy is assured. However, Hacktivist is no mere re-tread of what has come before. Hardwiring huge, devastating grooves with intelligent and insightful rhyme, Hacktivist are not afraid to split opinion.
