Meet Hiperson, Your New Favorite Band

BRYAN GROGAN RADII 2021-01-20

Back in 2015, Hiperson roared out of the blocks with their excellent debut album, No Need for Another History, cementing themselves as one of the most exciting young rock bands in China. The group had met a few years prior, while students at the Sichuan Conservatory of Music in Chengdu. Over the years that followed their formation, their interesting sound, approach and energy saw them borne aloft by hype and excitement.

Now, fast forward five years, and they are onto their third album, Bildungsroman, and have cemented themselves among the best bands in China.

Nevertheless, 2020 — as for so many people around the world — has not exactly gone to plan for Hiperson. They were due to perform at South by Southwest earlier this year, an event that was eventually cancelled due to the Covid-19 outbreak, and had also set their sights on a US tour and a European tour in support of Bildungsroman. The group have had to recalibrate and are instead planning to take in a 14-date tour of China instead. Tickets for that tour, if you’re wondering, are already sold out, as fans of the band rushed to snap them up in a matter of minutes.

This fandom, on the back of their third album, is warranted, with the group piecing together a magnificent, ethereal, poetic 10-track record in Bildungsroman, managing to surpass their already lofty standards.
