Canada’s thrash maniacs Hyperia have been shredding across stages since their conception in 2018 and have released three albums to wild global reception. Their latest work “The Serpent’s Cycle” is coming out this November and will be a continuation of the aggressive riffs, melodic vocals, and all-around party nature that the band has come to be known for. The next single “Automatic Thrash Machine” embodies that energy and draws listeners in with its endorphin rush of thrash technicality. The band describes the single:
“A tongue-in-cheek nod to our favourite party thrash songs, this track is our homage to partying and having a good time with your friends. It’s accompanied by a full-out kegger of a music video that shows the fun side of Hyperia. It’s one of the more straightforward thrash songs on the album but still has lots of intricate parts from all members.”

When it comes to writing, typically the music is written before the lyrics so it isn’t affected too much by vocals, however, there are times when they will restructure a riff to fit under the syllables of a word or to help with the annunciation and delivery of a lyric.
Hyperia wants fans to have their faces blown off by the aggression, speed, and intricacies of “The Serpent’s Cycle”. The ten-track album (plus a cover of Heart’s ‘Crazy On You’) will be appreciated by musicians and non-musicians alike. The songs vary enough to keep the pacing fresh throughout and there’s something for everyone on it. “The Serpent’s Cycle” is recommended for fans of Havok, Lost Society, and Children Of Bodom.
“The Serpent’s Cycle” is due out on November 17, 2023, and is available for pre-order at https://hyperiametal.bandcamp
