HYPOCRISY's Worship Reaches New Heights As The First Metal Album Launched Into Space; Video
On November 26, the newest addition to the Hypocrisy catalog, Worship, was released via Nuclear Blast Records. That evening, the band presented their fans with a special listening session that featured a video of vinyl being sent up to the stratosphere.
The journey was completed on a bespoke launch vehicle that carried and supported the record through the atmosphere. The craft was lifted by a large hydrogen-filled balloon reaching a maximum altitude of over 120,000 feet/36.57 km above the Earth. It fell back down to Earth reaching speeds over 200mph until it re-entered the troposphere (where we all live) where the onboard parachute slowed the craft to a gentle walking pace by the time it touched down.
Watch the full video of this historical launch:
It has been eight long years since the last record, and Hypocrisy fans can feel the itch. Worship is 11 tracks of precise, ferocious musicianship. Commonly inspired by the fusion of the modern and the ancient, Hypocrisy has once more found a way to combine innovative ideas with classic sound in order to deliver something metalheads can enjoyably consume with awe and brutal vigor. As usual, all recording and mixing took place at Tägtgren’s Abyss Studio AB in Sweden while mastering was completed by Svante Forsbäck at Chartmakers Audio Mastering. Designed by artist Blake Armstrong (Kataklysm, In Flames, Carnifex), Worship’s artwork speaks to the history of the relationship between humanity and extraterrestrials.

Прям очень хороший материал, честно не ожидал! Для меня однозначно альбом года. До классики может и не дотягивает, но своё лицо имеет. Достойно, товарищ Пётр! Жму лапу
После первого прослушивания не скажу, чтобы что-то прям сильно понравилось. Однако радует, что хоть чуть поменялось звучание. А то, начиная с альбома Virus по End of Disclosure, песни шли как будто под копирку - одна тональность, одни и те же "симфонические" синты. Оно, конечно, классно и кайфово (Virus один из самых любимых альбомов у меня), но хотелось чего-то ещё) А вообще дяде Пете респект, очень рад, что он Гиперкрыс не забывает)))
