Artist Biography
Available in:
In 2000 'Humanity' was formed. The next three years was spent writing songs and taking them around the UK metal scene .Demand for CD's were high at shows, so the band recorded the first EP ....as humanity fades. A reputation was quickly claimed for having a huge wall of sound and energetic stage show. In 2003 debut album ‘When silence calls’ was recorded with Pete ‘Pee-wee’ Coleman (Rush, Paradise lost), the album was released and Humanity’s sights looked upwards and next they played a series of high profile gigs with the likes of EVERGREY, BREED 77, DRAGONFORCE, BLAZE BAYLEY, JEFF SCOTT SOTO and CHILDREN of BODOM


In 2007 along came the name change,AWAKE and the second album was released ‘Illumination’ It had been recorded and produced by Evergrey’s Tom Englund at his studios in Sweden. AWAKE went straight into an extensive UK and European tour with EVERGREY. LION Music of Finland stepped up to release ‘Illumination’ worldwide and AWAKE embarked on another UK tour with MAGNUM.


Metal heads, AWAKE like nothing better than hitting the stage live & loud, it's the only way they know how. Commanding the stage with a bone shaking wall of sound, the fans know that it’s all about to get hot and sweaty, before joining in, rebounding the energy right back. Playing songs from their crowd pleasing Prog days but now mixed up with songs from the forth coming album that will blow your minds. The new songs are filled with blistering riffs and heart wrenching melodies. This album will reach the hearts of all metal rock Genres. The vocals from Simon Shedwell are oustanding. Never like this before has his talents shone through, one of the most underrated metal vocalists out there.
