Hijack Stories have released their debut album ‘Chapter II’. The 13-track project sees the duo take on their conceptual personas to deliver an eclectic blend that pushes an expanse of genres into new and futuristic arrangements. Intricate and energetic, everything from screaming guitars to fuzzy synths to electronic brass instruments makes an appearance beneath the innovatively delivered rap lyricism across the project.
The pair share a comment, “We put this record together as an experiment. Two different artists from two different backgrounds, spent the best part of two years together (inside an Art Simulator), fusing our many different styles and influences into what is now our debut album Chapter II.”
The band, consisting of rapper Stackie McClean and producer Squid Jackalsen, claim to be time travelling AIs from the year 3024, sent back one thousand years for a yet unknown purpose. Grown by sentient machines to replace the extinction of humanity, the pair plan to find original human avatars to take their songs to the stage.
