Manchester alt.metal quartet The Hyena Kill explore darkness without getting consumed by it on A Disconnect…
Words: Nick Ruskell
The Hyena Kill aren’t coming from the brightest of places on A Disconnect. In describing the album, singer/guitarist Steven Dobb speaks of truly bleak times, a loss of the joy of living, saying that, “The bulk of material was written during a very low point in my life, and as a result this album fell into place with a sense of claustrophobia and finality, of being trapped in a hospital bed, linked up to life support, unable to regain your own agency and escape the situation you find yourself in.”
