Hyro is a Hero

While I'm on here reviewing my oversights, I really should mention Hyro Da Hero's 2011 release Birth, School, Work, Death.

 

Advancing his seamless blend of hip hop and punk/rock sampling with the help of artists from At the Drive-In, The Blood Brothers and Idiot Pilot, Hyro continues to blur the lines drawn between two antonymous genres. I feel like these omitted treasures are (deservedly) receiving some extra love. I guess I could have added a little blurb beside each album on the original list but I feel better letting the music speak to you for itself. Whether you prefer to don your headphones or crank your speakers, slip this forward thinking gem in the tray first.
