}}'''''"HYPERPOWER!"''''' is the first track on the 2007 release ''[[Year Zero]].'' . It is a short instrumental that kicks off the album, a la "[[Pinion]]"."
A hyperpower is a nation that dominates the global stage through economy, military power, and technological prowess. The term has been used to describe the United States in the 1990s and retrospectively the British Empire in the 19th century.
==Versions==
===HYPERPOWER!===
This is the original album version. Instrumental, it continuously builds from the basic drum beat, adding layers of synthesizers, samples, guitars and bass until an explosive climax, after which everything suddenly stops. The decay of the drum reverb leads into "[[The Beginning Of The End]]"."
===HYPERPOWER! (Instrumental)===
===Gunshots By Computer===
This version is the opening track on ''Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D,'' and features vocals by [[Saul Williams]]. Williams recites a poem over "Hyperpower!"." Minimal changes were made to the music. The mix is also referred to as "Guns by Computer"."
