Oxymorrons have released a video for their new single Look Alive (Netic), taken from their upcoming album Melanin Punk.
“Look Alive is the perfect sonic representation of our unique blend of rock and hip-hop,” the band explains. “It hits hard, exudes energy, and lives authentically in both spaces. With swaggy, unapologetic vibes, it simultaneously uplifts while delivering a powerful message: ‘Hard Times Get Better.’ Stay focused, Stay Active, and Push Forward, always Look Alive.”
“For those who wonder what (Netic) is – Netic Rebel, a founding member of the band Game Rebellion, was an integral part of the AfroPunk movement, playing a vital role in building the festival’s legendary legacy. More than just a musician, he was a guiding force, a brother, and a mentor to all who knew him, leaving an indelible mark on the universe. Without Netic, there would be no Oxymorrons, as he not only inspired but also empowered POC bands to remain authentic and true to themselves. He embraced imperfections and was a perfect soul in his own unique way. Netic was a gift from the universe, and for this gift, we are forever grateful. His spirit lives on in the music, the memories, and the hearts of those he touched, and his legacy continues to resonate through the power of music and the unity he fostered.”
Melanin Punk is due for release on 20th October 2023 via Mascot Records, available to pre-order and pre-save HERE.
Oxymorrons will be on tour across the US supporting Corey Taylor this summer, followed by a headline run with support from Rivals, Sorry Mom, and The Raging Kids. Head to the band’s website HERE for full dates and tickets.
