Hypnosia was a Swedish death and thrash metal band that was formed in 1995 and split again in 2000.
history
The band was founded in 1995 by singer and guitarist Mikael "Cab" Castervall and drummer Michael "Mike" Sjöstrand. The following year the line-up was completed with bassist Klas Gunnarsson and guitarist Carl-Petter “Calle” Berg. With Crushed Existence from 1996 and The Storms from 1997, the band released their first two demos. The EP Violent Intensity was released on the small Swedish independent label Iron Fist Records in 1999. After the EP was released, Hampus Klang joined the band. At first he took over the bass, but then switched to the electric guitar in the same year. In the same year Hammerheart Records also became aware of the band and signed them.
The band developed new songs and recorded them at Euphony Studios . The album Extreme Hatred was released in 2000. After about two and a half years of searching, a suitable bassist was found in the same year in Lenny Blade. In 2002, the band separated to work on the second album, which was supposed to be called World Sacrifice , but never appeared. In May 2012 the band released the compilation "Horror Infernal", which contained the two demos released in 1996 and 1997 and the first album released in 2000. There are also two cover versions and a live recording on it.
style
On the Myspace fan page, the music is described as a mix of classic Thrash and Death Metal that originated in the 1980s and early 1990s. Bands like Slayer , Dark Angel , Kreator , Sadus , Death , Sodom and Sepultura are named as influences. The frequent changes in tempo are also characteristic of the band.
