Awake Again, the rising star of alternative metal, released a brand new song called “shitwreck”.

The song released by Awake Again depicts a personal shitstorm, inspired by a maritime theme. The new song features the madness familiar from System Of a Down, which adds even more fuel to Awake Again’s explosive vibe. The song was released with a lyric video.

“The first version of the song came about when I decided to try to finish the song in two hours and see what came out of it. Not much of it was saved for the final version, but the energy and atmosphere have been there from the beginning,” says the band’s vocalist Matti Österman, and continues:

“I had once written down the word ‘shitwreck’ because, in all its stupidity, I thought it was a fascinating wordplay that could describe a personal shipwreck.”

“I remember when we were thinking about the lyrics of the song together. We decided to go all out for the maritime theme, all the pieces fell into place and all the different parts of the song naturally tied together,” recalls bassist Ville Loukola.

The song was composed, written and produced entirely within the band, with vocalist Österman acting as producer. The song was mixed and mastered by Rami Nykänen, who has become one of the number one mixers in the Finnish metal scene.
