Led by Kris Musto (she/her) on vocals and rhythm guitar, alongside Nick Arathuzik (he/him, lead guitar), Gabriel Santos (he/him, bass), and Jeanette Abbene (she/her, drums/backing vocals), Hyber makes joyously pissed-off emo for those of us who feel too much and text back too fast.

Sonically they channel the raw nerve of Movements, the sugar-high hooks of The Beths, the self-aware angst of The Wonder Years, and the “it’s not a phase” stamina of early Fall Out Boy. They’re a bit younger and messier but equal parts melodramatic and melodic; built for basement shows and downward spirals alike.

‘Waiting For Your Call’ is Hyber, unfiltered; distorted guitars, a whiplash-inducing chorus, and a Space Invaders-style pick slide at 2:15 (left in by accident, but embraced with their full chest) define the track’s pulse. The single is also paired with a chiptune remix b-side—a video-game battle anthem for anyone tired of waiting on closure. Think: final boss fight music, but make it emotionally devastating, too.
