Band Review (The One Hundred)

The One Hundred

The One Hundred (From L to R) Joe Balchin, Jacob Field, Tim Hider, Phil Kneller

 The One Hundred are a gender mashing quartet from London. The One Hundred have been around since 2012 but have been making music together before. The One Hundred fuse grime with metal with a helping of electronica to create a sound which is unmistakably unique and refreshing.

  The One Hundred's vocals and electronic samples are provided by Jacob Field alongside Tim Hider and Phil Kneller on guitars and Joe Balchin on the all important drums.

 Since their formation in 2012, The One Hundred have built a solid following through extensive touring in the UK and are currently waiting to release their debut EP titled Subculture. The EP is due for release at the beginning of September with a total of six tracks. 

 The One Hundred are not currently touring but have odd gigs leading up to September: This said, The One Hundred do have a tour planned during November and December as part of the "Download freezes over" string of tours. The One Hundred alongside hardcore band Dead Harts will be supporting Hacktivist (Band Review here) for 22 shows from November until December, check here for details. (I have tickets for the first show of the tour so watch this space for a review).
