Creative and experienced trio THE HYBRIS shared with us their latest release, “What if,” and it seems we can’t get enough of it, we think we’ve listened to it 100 times just this morning. We love this band’s style, and their music is quite possibly our favorite genre to cover on the blog. The track is packed with energy, and it’s really some good stuff to listen to all day long. The instruments are amazing, and the lyrics are meaningful and well-written. The chorus is outstanding and will get stuck in your head in no time. You may find yourself singing it out loud by the next morning. The production of this track is solid, and the atmosphere is unique. It’s a great experience from start to finish and one of the best tracks we’ve heard in months. Check it out for yourself and be sure to let us know what you think.

ABOUT THE BAND:
THE HYBRIS is an international Alternative Rock project of three friends. Originally all members lived in Germany, they know each other for many, many years. In the past they played in various rockbands, before the trio was spread all over the world.
Today they live in Nice, in L.A. and in Cologne, but still – and more than ever – make music. They write and produce everything on their own, in a joint virtual recording studio. Every member plays various instruments and contributes what the current piece of music needs.
And why this name? In greek tragedy ‘Hybris’ stood for exaggerated self-pride, arrogance, excess of ambition causing the transgressor’s ruin. The perfect headline for the age we live in.
Their lyrics often show political attitude – well, rock songs without attitude are crap, right? But why these silly masks? Isn’t this mask thing worn out? THE HYBRIS create their music as Ringo Rabbit, Beanie Bison and Malcolm Mandrill – three wannabe superheroes on a mission to save the world. “We felt like doing something ‘different’. At first it was a stupid idea, but meanwhile we think it is pretty cool”, Ringo says.
Some suspect, they want to make themselves more interesting than they really are. Others believe it is a smart move – since they’re incredibly ugly in real life.
