Hiss formed in the circle of audio turmoil that has brought the neighborhood of Pigneto (Rome) to life for the last few years. Now it’s best known as Borgata Boredom, from the name of a compilation that took a snapshot of an important and embryonic moment of this new scene, both in Rome and elsewhere. Hiss is a French-Italian duo: Bob Junior (bass, effects, voice) and Ignes Klaus (percussion and voice). Hiss offer us, in their own way (which is no small thing), their rereading of a certain infected post-punk sound, acidic and strongly rhythmic.
