English rap-metal quartet the One Hundred meld nu-metal and trancecore elements with grime-style raps, delivered in a thick London accent for a unique take on the genre. Formed in Guildford, Surrey in 2013 by vocalist Jacob Field and guitarist Tim Hider, they were originally only a writing-and-production project, but once they realized there was no one performing the sort of music they were making, they decided to form a band and perform it themselves. Recruiting bassist Phil Kneller and drummer Joe Balchin, they quickly solidified an aggressive, intense style bearing the heavy influence of <a href="spotify:artist:2x3n60ukOull9yln5m080E">Senser</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:05fG473iIaoy82BF1aGhL8">Slipknot</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6XyY86QOPPrYVGvF9ch6wz">Linkin Park</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:31jvzuB4ikftPQZJwrYfCF">Enter Shikari</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:4k1ELeJKT1ISyDv8JivPpB">the Prodigy</a>, with Field effortlessly switching from belligerent rudeboy raps to intense metal shrieks and roars. Their debut track, "Breed," picked up support at BBC Radio 1, leading to the band recording a session for The Rock Show. Their debut EP, Subculture, was released in 2014 through respected metal indie label <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22UNFD%22">UNFD</a>, receiving rave reviews and drawing comparisons to fellow Brits <a href="spotify:artist:3hZtRePYRKW6wLtZ3gpnk7">Hacktivist</a>. They landed a slot at Download and high-profile support gigs with <a href="spotify:artist:4RddZ3iHvSpGV4dvATac9X">Papa Roach</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0cc6vw3VN8YlIcvr1v7tBL">Mötley Crüe</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:3gfA40vRbx6YX8oCDXDCDh">Crossfaith</a>, which further boosted their visibility. Signing a deal with Euro-metal giant <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Spinefarm%22">Spinefarm</a>, they released their debut full-length album, Chaos + Bliss, in June 2017; featuring the thrilling single "Monster," it took their futuristic sound even further, incorporating R&B and pop elements. ~ John D.
