Hailing from Mechelen, Belgium, Hippotraktor is a progressive/post-metal quintet that delves into the depths of sound and emotion to create an experience beyond the realm of conventional music. With their 2021 debut album ‘Meridian’, they capture the grandeur and complexity of nature, blending the rhythmic force of Gojira with the intricate grooves of Meshuggah. The record addresses themes of isolation, self-discovery, and the deification of natural forces.
