Inside New York

Hypernova

What is this all about? Four musicians, Chiming guitars and driving rhythm, appealing baritone vocals, one great album, a couple of videos, tons of press, packing clubs in the Los Angeles area, and the usual love of playing rock n’ roll.

Sick of politics? When thinking of Iran you probably don’t consider that region of the world as being an alternative-rock hotbed. After all, the simple act of performing rock music there can lead to a public flogging, time in prison or harsh fines. That’s where Hypernova is from. After playing numerous secret gigs in underground parking lots in the late hours of night, the band decided to leave their homeland and let their music take them on its journey to Los Angeles, where they ended up recording their debut album, Though The Chaos, produced by Herwig Maurer and mixed by Sean Beaven (Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, No Doubt).

Where are they now? Recently relocated to NYC from Los Angeles, Hypernova have been rapidly winning over fervent new converts while also receiving an impressive amount of press from the likes of MTV, the New York Times, NPR, ABC and the UK’s Telegraph newspaper. The band is preparing an East Coast tour, which will launch with their performance at BMI’s CMJ showcase on Oct 22 in NYC

Where are they going? Best said in their song “American Dream” I know that I'll never go back home / To the life I had, the life that I had known / They put me on the cover of their Magazines / Scarlet skies and broken dreams / They promised me that we would change the world / For better or for worse / All I wanted was to rock n roll / All I wanted was to see the world / The happenings on the streets / And mingle with the kooks and beats.
