VOIDCHASER Release "Hyperconverter" Video/Single (feat. Charlie Griffiths, ex-Haken)

Montreal (QC) / Stockholm (SE) - After the progressive rock and metal community was shaken by his departure from Haken earlier this year, Voidchaser release their new single, "Hyperconverter," featuring guitarist Charlie Griffiths, marking his first release since parting ways with the iconic prog metal act. Fans of Haken and Tiktaalika will be thrilled to discover this new Voidchaser track, a 7:27 epic and the band’s heaviest and most progressive song to date. This second single from their upcoming album Interstellar I pushes into darker, more technical and unpredictable territory.

The song is available on the usual streaming platforms, including Bandcamp, Spotify, Tidal, and Apple Music.

‍

Interstellar I, the band's second full-length album, will be released on April 9.

Depicting themes of technological overreach, mass corruption and personal struggles related to identity, love and survival, the narrative unfolds within a vast, lore infused deep space universe. Interstellar I balances a dense and layered wall of sound with high-energy choruses and memorable melodies, where every moment serves the storytelling. Musically, the album brings to mind the style of Devin Townsend’sZiltoid the Omniscient and Dream Theater’sSystematic Chaos, while reinterpreting those influences through Voidchaser’s own modern and distinctive sound, also drawing from classic foundations found in Deep Purple’sMachine Head and Black Sabbath’sParanoid. With this release, Voidchaser returns with a level of maturity that defines their most ambitious and fully realized work to date.

BIO:

Based in Montreal and Stockholm, Voidchaser is a progressive metal band that quickly established itself as a band worth watching on both local and international stages. Formed in 2023, the band rapidly gained momentum through a steady stream of releases, earning attention from niche outlets such as The ProgSpace, Prog Magazine and Prog Sphere, alongside coverage from major metal media, including Metal Injection and Decibel Magazine.

In 2024, Voidchaser released their debut EP, Odyssey, followed by two standalone singles and their debut full-length album, Solace. Written as a single continuous 30-minute composition, Solace is a concept album set in an orbital dystopia, exploring themes of power, uncertainty and love. The release charted among the top metal albums on Apple Music and iTunes in Canada, Sweden, Norway and several other countries.

‍

The band continued its momentum in 2025 with the release of Trust, an EP featuring guest appearances from Jim Grey of Caligula’s Horse and members of The Anchoret. That same year, the band embarked on its first international tour, performing 12 dates across Canada, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark and Sweden, and sharing the stage with acts such as Vulkan, Threshold, Kingcrow, Nospūn, Omnivide and Ok Goodnight. Highlights included appearances at ProgPower Europe in the Netherlands and the inaugural ProgStorm Festival in

Montréal, Canada.

In 2026, Voidchaser announced the upcoming release of Interstellar I, their second full-length record.
