If not for its epic musical onslaught (see the chaotic ‘Splinter‘, harrowing ‘Kerosene Dream’ and the roaring ‘If Only’), there’s an unnerving sense of darkness in Hyperdaze’s lyricism that makes for a one-two assault upon listening. Soaking in bleak lines including “Don’t pity me, I’m dead already” (‘If Only’) and “There is no God, we were all born to rot, we all die the fucking same” (‘Babylon’), Hyperdaze is the ultimate musical parcel of rancour.

On the band’s progression since their 2016 debut full-length, Bergin quips: “Children Of Chrome was an experiment, Hyperdaze is an experience.

“[Hyperdaze] is the most we’ve explored each and every detail that we put onto an album,” he adds. “From fine-tuning and tweaking all the synths and accompaniment to the grittiness and aggression of the vocals, we really wanted the pure anger that went into making these recordings to translate out the other side – something I feel we haven’t quite grasped on previous records.”

Building on the momentum of Children Of Chrome, and their more recent outputs, 2017’s Disturbia EP and 2018 single ‘Kill All My Friends’, Void of Vision have been consistently stretching their touring muscles. With slots at Good Things, UNIFY and Halloween Hysteria, extensive headlining across Australia, European visits and a recently announced support slot alongside Northlane, the band have been busy showcasing their live assault.

Now geared to impart their refined new material on the masses, the Hyperdaze era is set to see Void Of Vision at their most tenacious and hell bent yet.
