Synopsis

HYPER SLASH was formed in China, 2016, and comprises vocalist Soon, guitarist Folder, bassist Kool and drummer Jason.Z Steryev. Their popularity skyrocketed after dominating the stage on season 2 of popular Chinese variety show The Big Band in 2020. Blending otaku-core, electronic-core, heavy metal and punk, their sound has evolved into something uniquely their own, which they term “dopamine rock”. This is characterised by intense screamo vocals over unrelenting blast beats and supercharged guitar riffs, interspersed with distinctive 8-bit sounds in an anime-inspired atmosphere. HYPER SLASH’s massive hybrid beast of sound is driven by the intense emotions of youth, passion and darkness, fully embodied by each member during their wild and explosive live performances.
