Hailing from Houston, Texas, this Nu-Metal band fuses Metalcore & Experimental Electronic sounds with little elements of Hyperpop. Started with band members Han Kim, Gustavo Hernandez, Carlos Pertuz, and Daniel Garcia. With previous alumni being Zorn on Bass, and Cody on Drums.

Based on an Article from Nu Metal Agenda: The Album, Hyperviolence was written about the band's "fantasies of revenge", not an album promoting violence but being open about having violence tendencies, the album carries heavy influences from older nu-metal bands like Slipknot & System of a Down.

I first heard of the band from other people's Instagram stories when the band came to town with Kaonashi last fall, I grew up with a lot of electronic genres being in my playlists as a kid so seeing something like that, being adapted into a Nu-Metal format, really made me curious about the band

Hyperviolence isn't just another nu-metal album, it's pure chaos and energy. From the start of Payback to the last song, Omerta mixes Unpredictable and intense riffs, wild electronics, and bold lyrics in song's like Benny Boy, Talent Show, and Garbage. This album is made to shock with its controversial lyrics, if you want something chaotic and exciting, Hyperviolence is a must-listen.
