Karnivool Set US Release
. Four years since their last album in their homeland of Australia, Sound Awake debuted at #2 on the national ARIA albums chart, eclipsed only by global mega-brand the Black Eyed Peas. The album has already gone GOLD in Oz and expresses Karnivool's reputation as the sharp end of the cutting edge of heavy rock in the country. Produced by Forrester Savell (The Butterfly Effect, Mammal, Dead Letter Circus), Sound Awake is kaleidoscopic & multi-dimensional. It delivers the band's trademark sound and takes the listener to new heights as it ventures into innovative exploratory territory. The lead track on the album, "Set Fire To The Hive," with its distorted vocals, up-tempo vibe, raw prog-punk feel and vocalist Ian Kenny's venomous delivery, sounds nothing like Karnivool have attempted before and takes the band into uncharted sonic territory. KARNIVOOL are ecstatic to announce their spring co-headlining tour of the U.S. with Fair To Midland beginning in March of 2010. This will be the Australian quintet's first full jaunt across the States in three years. The trek will begin at the South By Southwest Music Festival in Austin, TX March 16-21, where the band were accepted in the first round of showcasing artists and have already confirmed four performances. All venues are not yet confirmed, but after starting in the south and heading up the east coast to NYC, Philly and Boston, the VOOL will then head west through Cleveland, Minneapolis and Denver before wrapping up in San Francisco and LA.
