Lincoln town is the home town of Hyper Snyper...who sound like they’ve been brought up on a solid diet of three Weetabix, WKD and the glorious sounds of both Baggy and The Enemy.
“Hear The Sounds” (Download this EP for FREE) is a simple melee of fuzzy stadium guitars and pulsing bass, peppered with electronica. There’s an anthemic, almost shouty swagger and it all seems perfectly combined.
< Then there’s this rock and roll guitar break; ricocheting off the walls with a big, beefy American blues rock riff out. Half a minute later there’s the sound of effected, ascending guitar highlights, mingling with the ever present meaty sequencing. It sounds quite simple, but there’s plenty of deep rooted thinking behind this accomplished rock out / sing-a-long,. “Feels Like Home” decides to trip off on a kind of sc-fi disco rock expedition, as Hyper Snyper try their hand at yet more cross genre innovations – truly original, memorable stuff with a brave but soulful heart, along the way, mixing in anything it cares to please...
Biog
Hyper Snyper weave a bizarre web of heavy electronic noise and melodies.
The band are a bunch of brickies and sparkeys from small town Lincoln with a sound falling somewhere between Primal Scream and a trance DJ at 2am, just as the drugs take hold.
Baggy Happy Mondays / hip hop rhythms, Guns n' Roses guitar outbursts and a grinding, choppy synth noise wall come together in a set designed and built to see punters thrashing about on the dancefloor in ecstacy.
You need this in your life. Maybe just once, but you do.
Firstly, thanks for having us a friend! We really do appreciate it, it's a hard slog being an original band at the moment.
Secondly, do you, or anyone you know, like to play bass? And do you, or this person who you know who plays bass want to play bass in a gigging rock band?
The Hubris are recruiting. Mark is hanging up his plucking pinkies at the end of the year and we need to find someone who can do what he can do.
We're after a bassist who likes his/her rock music. We've been compared to loads of punk bands, old and modern. John from Bruised Fruit described our recent demo thusly: "This is class - really catchy. It's like the Jam meet Green Day meet The Clash and it's a three way explosion of awesome." (Thanks John - hope you don't mind us quoting that to death!)
What we're after is someone who's, well, who's good at playing bass really. Have good attitude, be willing to practise up to twice a week, and tear up every gig we get our mitts on. Ideally the ability to backing sing would be good. Songwriting optional.
We've played quite a few gigs since we started gigging in July, and we have more gigs booked into the future. As soon as we get someone on board we have the opportunity of a load more very soon. We were played on Feile FM a couple of weeks ago, listeners texted in and asked for an encore.
Loads of scope for you to take a songwriting role if you fancy, plus we're a very easygoing bunch of people who have a good laugh as well as work hard.
If you like rock music and you want to be in a real rock band then contact me.
