HYPNO5E also will enter Sterling Sound Studio in New York City to work on the mastering for their new as-of-yet untitled album. While their debut Des Deux L’une Est L’autre mirrors life’s highs and lows and harmonizes classical music, expect their upcoming album to be much more violent and futuristic. While you wait for that, their debut Des Deux L’une Est L’autre can be streamed in its entirety here: http://www.myspace.com/hypno5e
The Ripple Effect
“Experimentally proggy, technically over the head, and brutal all at the same time, these guys hear music in their own unique way and aren’t afraid to stretch their sound to distant and, as of yet, unimaginable dimensions... This is the type of album that will make you question all that you know, or think that you know, about music… ”
Metal Underground
“From breakdowns behind classical female vocals to gut-wrenching screams and syncopation, the band covers more ground than Rambo ripping through a jungle… A surrealistic venture through several genres of haunting ass-kickings, because this is an album meant to frighten, impress, and envelope the listener.
