"Rhyme Without Reason" by Hilera
from Behind the Song · host Big Baby Studios
The year is 2005, and newly formed rock trio Hilera just won one of the biggest band competitions in the land, and with it came the ultimate dream prize: a full-length major label release. Not exactly a new concept, but the results were arguably way better... in fact, it was downright amazing, and that debut album gave us Rhyme Without Reason, a song that is still anticipated in Hilera's sets to this day. Songwriter and vocalist/guitarist Chris Padilla reveals the deets behind this monumental track, and how it's actually tied to a Metallica song. Behind the Song was produced, recorded, and distributed under quarantine by Big Baby Studios. Do excuse the not so great audio, this episode was recorded over Zoom.
