French progressive metal band HYPNAGONE unleashes its newest song, “White Fields” from the upcoming album “Qu’il Passe”, along with a visualizer. The full-length album is due to be released on October 14.
While starting as a relatively slower song with a superb clean vocal performance, “White Fields” dives into progressive metal madness using technical riffs as well as a heavy prog ambiance. The song becomes exceedingly technical, before taking the listener down with a mellow ending; HYPNAGONE has created what can be described as a “powerful prog-metal trip”.
HYPNAGONE also reveals the tracklist of its upcoming 11-track LP “Qu’il Passe” which is, by all means, a work of sonic art, crafted and refined in five years by Antoine Duffour, the founder of HYPNAGONE. The album distinguishes between technicality, progressive heaviness, and a beautiful yet pensive ambiance.

1. Arrival (2:13)
2. Shibboleth (8:55)
3. Spannungsbogen (4:32)
