Buffalo quartet Until I Wake — new vocalist Justin Smith, alongside bassist Ryan Ridley, guitarists August Geitner and Niko Karras, and drummer Alex Curtin — are pleased to announce their new studio album “Renovate”. It arrives on December 6th, 2024, via Fearless Records.
On “Renovate”, the band has upped the ante, cranking all knobs to 11. Pummeling verses collide with soaring, arena-ready choruses, all of which are backed with percussion so immediate it could replace your own heartbeat and a relentless barrage of neck snapping riffs — the kind that hard rock fans can’t get enough of.
Until I Wake have leveled up every element of their sound, and are re-invigorated by the addition of new singer Smith. They’ve honed their live chops with nonstop touring, appeared at key festivals, such as Download, Welcome to Rockville, Upheaval, and more, and have garnered press praise from Blabbermouth, Outburn, Kerrang!, and Alternative Press while amassing millions of streams. Now armed with a killer sophomore album and their lineup cemented, Until I Wake are poised to become “ones to watch” in the hard rock scene.
Today, the band shared the video for the title track, which traffics in explosive quiet-loud dynamics that demonstrate just how deft the band’s songwriting is. It’s quite a moody banger.
Watch the video for “Renovate” below.
“The title track is a transition from darkness to light”, Until I Wake say. “It’s about finally seeing the chance to achieve the peace of mind and happiness life has to offer beyond all of the pain — a chance to rebuild and reshape the person we want to become and leave all of the past behind us. We knew this could be the song on the album which truly ties the whole concept of ‘growth’ together. We’d love for this song to be something someone could use to help them reshape or rebuild their own lives in a positive way”.
