Mass Hypnosis is the best kept secret of the South Eastern European Heavy Metal scene. Hailing from Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, this 3-piece Industrial / Groove Metal outfit are slowly forging their path for world domination. Initially formed in early 2006 as a Deathcore oriented band with influences from Melodic to Old School Brutal / Death Metal and even NY Hardcore.
Mass Hypnosis released their début album "Disin4mation" in 2010 under the wings of Geenger Records. The band is known for using socio-political lyrics and subjects like modern-age slavery, conspiracy facts, media manipulation, religion and war. They have shared stages with the likes of Darkest Hour, Deicide, Decapitated, Doom, Belphegor and Total Chaos, including a slot on a prestige Metalcamp festival alongside titans such as Slayer, Mastodon, Kreator etc.
Developing their sound even more they shifted towards Industrial Metal using heavy distortion, electronics, pounding bass riffs and fast-paced, aggressive vocals. The bands last two EP releases ''God Complex'' and ''Inevitable Disaster'' demonstrates where Mass Hypnosis is heading. This is the new industrial revolution!

L'horizon est paradoxal, à la fois porte d'entrée vers l'infini mais aussi un mur qui bloque notre regard. Ekove Efrits le transcende dans son troisième album Conceptual Horizon, il le met à la merci de son imagination. Hypermnesia a été un tournant pour le one-man band iranien qui fait de cette nouvelle création un théâtre du monde au nombre d'acteurs et de décors quasiment illimité. C'est un des albums de black metal dépressif les plus éclectiques que je connaisse : un grand coup de maître ! Jordan Vauvert

I love this particular niche of modern black metal. Crisp, biting production and clear, cutting riffs. Imperialist are among the best there is right now. Brett (Lascaille's Shroud / Soulmass)

J'imaginais Solitude and Suicide comme l'album de la dissidence — avec un black metal ni totalement dépressif, ni symphonique, ni païen : il était un peu à part — mais il jouait en réalité le rôle d'album de transition. Dans Pandemic Transgression, Funeral Fornication met encore plus l'accent sur les synthés et entre de plain-pied dans le black metal symphonique. Le vitriol saturé existe encore part endroits mais ce sont les atmosphères et les mélodies qui emportent la bataille. Plus accessible. Jordan Vauvert
