Hardcore/hip-hop outfit Ho99o9 have capped off a breakthrough year, which saw them appear on their first-ever magazine cover (Revolver, no less!) and continue to smash boundaries across music, fashion and art, with a spanking new EP of rabble-rousing ripper. Titled Cyber Cop [Unauthorized MP3.], the seven-track offering comes with a digital zine, which, like the record, takes on our internet age and runs it through a industrial-strength meat grinder.
"We are machines ...," Ho99o9 commented on the album in a statement. "In this day & age humans live in a world where the web runs our life, we started in charge but we're slaves to our own technology. Who's 'policing' the internet & who controls what? Is it safe to Internet, can we really say what we want on the Internet? Without fans, people, conservatives, critics, blogs, coming at your neck crazy? Memes, screen shots, a video or photo from years ago can come back to haunt you. Is it safe to put all your personal business on the internet? Is it safe to voice your opinion on the internet, Is it safe to share on the internet? Is it safe to learn from the internet? What's real, what's fake and what's actually true. Is it safe to say the Internet isn't safe? Is it safe to love the internet? Is it safe to hate the internet? Is Internet God? Is Internet the Devil?"
