HYPERIA

With their first EP Fish Creek Frenzy, the Canadians showed that old-school thrash can definitely be revived and renewed. Insanitorium (2020), their following debut album, convinced listeners with technical skill. Singer Marlee Ryley performed in an outstanding manner, her vocals reminded of shouters like Kyle Thomas of the 90’s thrash formation Exhorder. And the creativity of HYPERIA didn't stop there – the band released Silhouettes of Horror as their second full-length in March 2022. Constantly improving their sound and songwriting, the band created a menacing soundwall with this record. Oscillating between topics such as sleep paralysis, horror stories and mental health, aggression and madness jumped out of this music and abducted listeners into a world like an asylum. The four thrashheads even included an ABBA cover in a fancy metal version. Success showed quickly – the album was among the Top 10 'Best Thrash Metal Albums of the Year' in the Metal Hammer 2022. HYPERIA are ready to release their next banger The Serpent’s Cycle in November 2023.
