Hyper Reels by Maitreya
Hyper Reels is an honest expression and discovery of what Maitreya is all about. We lived with these songs for years, honing them on stage and in the studio. This album details our evolution as a band, remaining true to our metalcore roots and highlighting a trajectory not confined to any particular subgenre. In the process of making this album, we put everything under the microscope and as a result every element is more refined and matured. Our intention with this record was to craft songs with strong conceptual meanings paired with a musical complexity that remains catchy.
Hyper Reels delves deep into societal and philosophical themes regarding identity, organizational value, free will, truth, and spirituality. It communicates feelings of anger, frustration, and isolation, as well as optimism, freedom and inspiration. Conceptually focuses on science fiction, artificial intelligence, cybernetic enhancement, and the new technological consciousness. Our sound is more refined now, and will continue to refine in future releases. We are very proud of this album, and are excited to keep writing, recording, and performing music as long as we are able!
