Following the visually and emotionally arresting first single and video \u201cFlashpoint<\/strong>\u201d (their first since 2019’s “Hold Your Breath”), seminal British electronic band\u00a0HYBRID<\/strong>\u00a0returns with second single and video\u00a0\u201cNAILS.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0 A sequel to the sci-fi narrative established with the previous release, \u201cNails\u201d continues the visual and mind-blowing extravaganza that perfectly matches the music\u2019s compelling and propulsive adrenaline rush.<\/p>\n

\u201c’Nails’ is a continuation to the story of the \u2018Flashpoint\u2019 video and also echoes the message of the song which is fundamentally the internal turmoil of battling your inner demons and the struggle to silently regain control,\u201d explains vocalist\/songwriter\u00a0Charlotte Truman<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

With the First Act focusing on the arrival of the \u201cbeings,\u201d the moodier and atmospheric Second Act zooms its focus on a mysterious crystal chained around Charlotte\u2019s neck. \u201cThe meaning of the amulet will follow in the next part of the story,\u201d she hints demurely.<\/p>\n

Filmed entirely during the pandemic lockdown, the video was shot on location on Charlotte and sound designer\/producer and husband\u00a0Mike Truman<\/strong>‘s property that includes a farm of over 60 animals. \u201dOur biggest concern was whether the fire service might show up whilst we were prancing about in gigantic plumes of black smoke,\u201d she laughs. \u201cMike of course shot the film and I found it very powerful, emotionally speaking, to perform. Plus I had the added bonus of scaring the shit out of Mike when I turned up on set looking like some kind of warrior angel of vengeance.\u201d<\/p>\n

A band whose electrorock influence echoed throughout the \u201890s straight up to\u00a0aujourd'hui<\/span>, Hybrid have always been on the forefront of the electronic music scene.\u00a0 Merging Jimi Hendrix-styled guitar riffs\u00a0via\u00a0<\/em>guitarist\/vocalist\u00a0Stu Morgan\u00a0<\/strong>into Mike’s sonic soundscapes and punctuated by drummer\u00a0Simon Hanson<\/strong>\u2019s meticulous rhythms, Hybrid\u2019s music allows Charlotte\u2019s clear and pristine vocals to float and weave effortlessly.<\/p>\n

Originally formed in 1995 at the height of the UK-led Breakbeat Era, Hybrid became leaders of an electronic movement that encompassed a dizzying litany of pinch-yourself moments and accomplishments, including collaborations and credits with luminaries as far-ranging as\u00a0Colline du Cypr\u00e8s<\/a>, Perry Farrell\u00a0<\/strong>et\u00a0Peter Hook\u00a0<\/strong>from New Order. In their own right, Hybrid continue to take their art to incredible places through speakers, stage and screen. And at the heart of it all is simply this: powerful storytelling.<\/p>\n
