Manifesting superhuman force through near-magic sonic alchemy, Ho99o9 consistently break free from any and all creative constraints. The duo—theOGM and Yeti Bones —co-mingle genres like chemicals, mixing gloriously hellish hip-hop, basement-born hardcore, future-facing punk, throat-slitting metal, jarring industrial, and off-kilter electronica into a concoction meant to combust the moment you press play or when they hit the stage. As such, the group has quietly haunted the darkest corners of the culture, peeking out with a series of unanimously acclaimed releases, A-list collaborations, and sold-out tours. In 2025, they make a statement with their third full-length album, Tomorrow We Escape, a 999 Deathkult / Last Gang Records/MNRK debut. “We knew these tunes were emotional, so everything fell into place with the title Tomorrow We Escape,” reveals Yeti Bones. “From there, it was like a flower bloomed. You could be escaping mental issues, problems with drugs, or bad situations. It’s up to the listener.” “When we started this process, we knew we wanted to make more relatable songs,” adds theOGM. “It was a healthy challenge to focus on emotion. In the past, a lot of our material was politically charged. That element is present to a degree, but we wanted to take a more personal route. This mindset drove how we wrote songs. Everybody has a struggle. The goal is to find motivation for preservation. The New Jersey-bred outfit made its way to Los Angeles over a decade ago. Surging and seething just below the surface, the pair broke through as an apocalyptically fascinating outlier with their 2017 full-length debut, United States of Horror—hailed by DIY as “incomparable to anything else being made right now.”  In the meantime, their infamous live shows became the stuff of legend as they packed houses on their own and shared stages with everyone from Slipknot, Korn, Alice In  Chains, Rob Zombie, Ministry, and The Dillinger Escape Plan to Lil Uzi Vert, Denzel Curry, Cypress Hill, and Ghostface Killah. Earning the respect of an elite cohort of peers, popular collaborations placed them toe-to-toe with Corey Taylor of Slipknot, The Prodigy, JPEGMAFIA, Ghostemane, HEALTH, 3TEETH, and N8NOFACE, to name a few. Jack Black made an appearance in their KULT CABLE series, while they guested on The Eric Andre Show. Beyond further acclaim from The New York Times, The Quietus, The FADER, Revolver, and more, The New York Times equated Ho99o9 as “An all-out barrage.”   They stand out as the rare phenomenon that can decimate Hell Fest and captivate on A COLORS SHOW. theOGM and Yeti Bones carefully pieced together what would become Tomorrow We Escape. They built its framework in Los Angeles, as well as Paris, taking their time to perfect the vision. theOGM elaborates, “After our last tour, we came back to some of the early ideas we had recorded, and we revamped them. The concept came together, and we fleshed out newer songs. ”  Yeti Bones continues. “We’re old-school music lovers who are used to listening to albums all the way through with no skips. That was our intent.” The duo introduces this next chapter with “Upside Down.” Produced by Yung Skrrt, frenetic keys crash into a neck-snapping beat. Warped guitars echo beneath woozy melodies as a danceable bassline drives the verses. It climaxes with an omen on the reverb-y refrain, “Spiral going down.” “Your life is spiraling down,” repeats Yeti Bones. “Everything is going each and every way, and you can’t control it. Heaven is down, Hell is up, and you’re in the middle. You don’t know the way to go, but you’ve got to find your own path.” theOGM elaborates, “You’re holding up a mirror to yourself and asking, ‘Who are you?’ This is me speaking to myself and questioning my character, failures, ups, and downs. Sometimes, you’ve got to check yourself.” Then, there’s “Incline.” Over a soundscape from Dave Sitek [TV on the Radio, Jane’s Addiction, Wale], Ho99o9 lock in with Yung Skrrt, The Nova Twins, and Pink Siifu. “We’re busting through the door on this one,” says Yeti Bones. Blade Runner-style synths pulsate on “Target Practice,” which Sam Matlock of Wargasm and Charlie Russell cooked up. Taking no prisoners, Ho99o9 body the production with grizzled and gritty flows, giving way to a screamed proclamation, “This ain’t metal. This ain’t trap. Give a fuck where you at. Give a fuck where you from. Bitch, I’m telling all the facts.” “It came out of frustration,” admits theOGM. “The industry tells you, ‘Make this hit. Stand here with this sign’. I’m unapologetically me, and ain’t nobody can tell me what to do. Nobody knows what a hit is. I set the tone..” “When theOGM spit the chorus, it was like, ‘Oh, that’s how we’re doing it’. He sparked the flame out of nowhere, and I knew I had to come correct,” laughs Yeti Bones. “Tapeworm” features vocals from Greg Puciatoo, former lead vocalist and lyricist for The Dillinger Escape Plan. Chelsea Wolfe lends her instantly recognizable vocals to the ghostly “Immortal.” Creaky clean guitar echoes behind a smoky haze as she steps out of a dream and sings, “You my life. You my love. My past my own.” “The first half is heartbreak,” notes theOGM. “These are the sides of us you don’t normally hear.” A ticking clock initially sets the tempo on the epic finale “Godflesh.” Reckless riffing and a double bass barrage speed up the punky crescendo topped off with the glitchy chant, “Born dead. God’s flesh.” It serves as an apotheosis in fire. “We end every show with a bang,” theOGM says. “‘Godflesh’ pays homage to some of our old work where we were constantly talking about what’s happening in our country and how we feel about people in charge—who we don’t fuck with. There is nothing you can do to destroy me. You might kill the physical me, but you can’t kill In the end, this is everything Ho99o9 was always meant to be, and it’s the ultimate escape. “As much as this record is for new audiences, it’s also for the ride-or-die fans who have rocked with us from the jump,” theOGM leaves off. “The message is, be present.” “We’re really showing everyone who we are personally,” concludes Yeti Bones. “We bleed the same blood.”
