British alternative rockers Don Broco took a dive into nü-metal with their latest single, “Hype Man“, implementing rap-metal style verses, lunge riffs and more. Vocalist Rob Damiani said of the song:
“‘Hype Man’ is about how grateful I am to be on this journey with the rest of my bandmates. We’ve been friends since school and I don’t know how I could face all the challenges of life without them. In this industry there’s so many highs and lows that I couldn’t even imagine dealing with as a solo artist, so for me that brotherhood and support system is the best thing about being in a band. We all need that person to talk to when things become too much, that person who can bring the energy and get you back on track. So if you’re struggling, don’t ever be afraid to go ask for that help.”
This song follows their recent single “Cellophane“, which also explored a similar nü-metal/alternative metal style.
