SUMMARY:ProgMotion: HYPNO5E | Support: HIPPOTRAKTOR
LOCATION:Club Zentral
DESCRIPTION:HYPNO5E: After the ambitious A Distant (Dark) Source (2018) and
  the subsequent artistic triumph of its live incarnation in 2021\, French 
 avant-garde metal outfit HYPNO5E reached a new creative peak with their si
 xth studio album\, Sheol (2023). Expanding on the mythological and narrati
 ve cycle initiated by its predecessor\, Sheol unfolded as both a prequel a
 nd a mirror\, cementing the band’s singular vision of cinematic storytel
 ling through sound. Since their inception in 2006\, HYPNO5E have continuou
 sly refined a deeply immersive musical language—one that fuses progressi
 ve metal\, post-hardcore intensity\, and filmic composition into a genre-d
 efying experience. From the raw chaos of Des Deux l’Une Est l’Autre (2
 007)\, through the hazy atmospheres of Acid Mist Tomorrow (2012)\, to the 
 expansive mastery of Shores of the Abstract Line (2015) and the introspect
 ive soundtrack work Alba – Les Ombres Errantes \, the band has built a b
 ody of work defined by evolution\, coherence\, and emotional depth. With S
 heol \, HYPNO5E achieved a rare balance between density and clarity\, weav
 ing together massive grooves\, angular riffs\, haunting string arrangement
 s\, and evocative spoken-word excerpts from literary voices such as César
  Vallejo\, Jean Cocteau\, and Anne Sexton. The arrival of drummer Pierre R
 ettien and bassist Charles Villanueva brought renewed energy and nuance\, 
 allowing the band to explore warmer tones and a broader dynamic spectrum\,
  while maintaining the intensity and complexity that define their sound. N
 ow\, in 2026\, HYPNO5E open a new chapter with their upcoming album\, Tram
 e Noire . While rooted in the conceptual and aesthetic continuity that has
  long defined the band\, this new work pushes their cinematic approach eve
 n further—unfolding as a darker\, more fragmented narrative\, where memo
 ry\, perception\, and time collapse into one another. Expanding their soni
 c palette once again\, Trame Noire ventures into more textural\, immersive
  territories\, blurring the boundaries between music and moving image. To 
 accompany this release\, the band returns to the stage with a new live pro
 duction\, bringing their uniquely visual and narrative-driven performances
  to audiences across Europe. Known for transforming concerts into fully im
 mersive experiences\, the band continues to bridge the gap between film an
 d sound\, inviting listeners not just to hear their music\, but to inhabit
  it. With Trame Noire \, HYPNO5E reaffirm their position as one of the mos
 t distinctive and forward-thinking voices in modern progressive music—cr
 afting works that are as intellectually ambitious as they are emotionally 
 resonant. https://www.hypno5e.com HIPPOTRAKTOR: Hippotraktor's story reall
 y took off with Meridian (2021). Hailing from Mechelen\, Belgium\, the ban
 d struck the progressive metal scene like a meteorite\, delivering a sound
  as monumental as it is relentless. Far from making empty promises\, they 
 rely on a wall of layered guitars and the complex polyrhythmic assaults of
  drummer Lander De Nyn\, elevating technical precision to an international
  standard. Their ability to fuse massive riffs with a rhythmic finesse rem
 iniscent of titans such as Gojira and Meshuggah makes them a unique and fo
 rmidable force within the genre. With the release of their second album\, 
 Stasis \, in June 2024 via Pelagic Records\, Hippotraktor proved themselve
 s to be an indispensable pillar of the scene. The album was unanimously ha
 iled by international critics as a masterpiece of dynamism: a waking dream
  of crushing riffs\, cathartic choruses\, and a powerful vocal synergy bet
 ween Stefan De Graef and Kristof Du Jardin. While its predecessor explored
  the natural world\, Stasis delved into the heart of the frictions of the 
 human condition. Never resting on its laurels\, Hippotraktor has just emer
 ged from the studio after recording its most ambitious work to date: Annih
 ilist. This new chapter is set for release on October 2\, 2026\, via Pelag
 ic Records\, promising to push the boundaries of progressive metal once ag
 ain. https://hippotraktor.com\n\nBoletos: https://loveyourartist.com/event
