HYPERLIVE

Dutch band KNIGHT AREA was formed in 2004, shortly after its founder Gerben Klazinga released the album "The Sun Also Rises" using the Knight Area moniker. Since then the band has released new albums at a steady pace, with 5 full-length studio recorodings to their name so far. The live CD/DVD "Hyperlive" is their most recent production, released by the Polish label Metal Mind in 2015.

As this is Knight Area's first live DVD, fans of the band in general and those who treasure their 2014 album "Hyperdrive" in particular come across as the main audience for this live production. And while I wouldn't advise those who want to become more familiar with the band in itself to opt for this release as a good introduction, those who generally are intrigued by bands that mix their neo progressive rock with hard rock and progressive metal might find this set of live CD and DVD to merit a check.
