Once Awake
Modern metal band from Bergen, Norway. Forging metal with influences from the early 2000s new wave of American metal as well as the Scandinavian melodic death metal scene, the Norwegians have made a mark for themselves in the underground scene.
Performing at the first ever Knotfest live streaming festival ‘Pulse Of The Maggots’ during the pandemic – alongside bands such as Orbit Culture and Vended to name a few – they got worldwide attention and recognition.
Third album “Bridgeburner” (2020) was a big step up in production and quality as the bands’ sound continues to evolve, putting high value on fusing the elements of melodic choruses mixed with teeth-crushing riffs and breakdowns. By touring all over Europe playing 22 shows with Dagoba (FRA) and Infected Rain (MOL) earlier this year Once Awake have expanded their fanbase significantly – and audiences as well as critics praise their live performances.
The fourth album is self-titled and was released 23rd November 2022. Followed by their first headliner tour in the UK in January 2023 called UK Awake Tour 2023. ♫♪♪
