Hybris (Swedish: hybris 'hubris') is the first studio album by Swedish progressive rock group Änglagård.
Released in late 1992, it would become one of the most influential albums of the new wave of progressive rock in the 1990s.[citation needed] It begins with "Jordrök" (which means 'earth-smoke'), the only fully instrumental piece on the album.
The remastered CD version of the album contains a bonus track called "Gånglåt från Knapptibble". The song was originally included on the Ptolemac Terrascope Number 5 CD sampler. The song also appears on the Hurricane Katrina benefit album After the Storm (NEARfest Records, 2005).
