Formed in Santiago in 2012, Alterhyde has carved its own path in the metalcore scene, drawing influences from groove metal to nu metal. The current members include Anv-Hysteria on vocals, Diego Mesh on drums, Luis Valenzuela on bass, Cristian Alarcon and Nicolas Muñoz on guitars.
“INTERCAMBIO EQUIVALENTE,” composed of eight unreleased songs, is a bold proposal that reflects the band’s evolution and maturity.
