New York, NY (Top40 Charts) HACKTIVIST's highly-anticipated debut UNFD/Rise Records LP Outside The Box isn't officially out until this Friday, March 4th, but you can listen to the whole album now on the Rise Records Youtube page.
The
Milton Keynes, UK rockers say, �It�s so fucking 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.�
Like antibodies that fight disease, Outside The Box is an immediate and fierce response to the world Hacktivist inhabit. It's a conscious call to arms and the product of a unique bunch of mates that could only ever have been conceived in the neglected corners of one of the UK's most misunderstood towns in 2016 by one of the most exciting bands around. It's no understatement to say Outside The Box has been a long time coming - it comprises over five years' worth of ideas that have been bubbling while the band crossed milestone after milestone, fueled by the success of their incendiary self-titled 2013 EP.
Earlier this week, the band debuted a video for their latest single 'Taken', which features special guest Rou Reynolds of Enter Shikari.
