Rising from the heart of Italy’s heavy metal underground, HyperioN have dropped a gripping lyric video for “Rewire, Rebuild,” the second single from their forthcoming album, Cybergenesis. Watch it now on YouTube:

The track is streaming across all major platforms, including Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Pandora, AWA, and Deezer.

Set for release on January 15th, 2026 via Fighter Records, Cybergenesis marks HyperioN’s third full-length studio album and is now available for pre-order: hyperionbandheavy.bandcamp.com/album/cybergenesis

A concept-driven record steeped in classic sci-fi lore, Cybergenesis delivers eight tracks of high-octane traditional heavy metal. The album’s narrative follows a doomed space mission that triggers the awakening of the Choir—an ancient alien hive mind—and humanity’s descent into a brutal war against cyborg overlords. At the center of this rebellion stands the Rhizome Rider, a fallen commander reborn to lead the final charge for freedom.

Drawing inspiration from genre-defining works like Star Trek and Ghost in the Shell, Cybergenesis explores themes of resistance, sacrifice, and the enduring strength of the human spirit.

The album’s cover art was hand-painted by UK illustrator Ryan T. Hancock, known for his work with Seven Sisters, Blood Star, and Stormborn. HyperioN deliberately chose a traditional canvas approach to reflect the album’s raw, human essence.

1. Deafening
2. Rewire, Rebuild

About HyperioN: Founded in 2015 by drummer Jason Beghelli and guitarist Davide Cotti, HyperioN emerged with a mission to revive traditional heavy metal, channeling the spirit of Metal Church, early Queensrÿche, and Judas Priest. Their debut album Dangerous Days (2017) earned critical acclaim and led to live appearances alongside Italian metal stalwarts.

Following lineup changes and the release of Into The Maelstrom (2020), the band weathered the pandemic and expanded their global reach via Bandcamp and streaming platforms. With a refreshed lineup and renewed creative fire, HyperioN now present Cybergenesis—a bold new chapter that honors their roots while pushing their sound into cinematic, sci-fi territory.
