Finnish melodic hard rock / AOR band Wake The Nations is back! The previous album Heartrock was released in 2019 via German AOR Heaven.
The upcoming third album Heartageddon will be released on September 13th 2024 via Inverse Records. The Finnish label also released the band’s sold-out debut album Sign of Heart back in 2015.
The first single ‘Alive’ from the forthcoming album is released today and a rather personal music video has also been made for the band, replacing the guys with women.
You’ll have to check it out below.
The band comments:
“Storyline behind the song takes us back all the way to 2016, when the first lines were written. Based on a true story including bungee-jumps, rollercoaster-like-emotions, and love (of course… what did you expect from a WTN song…mf´s).
Like our drummer Tuomas said: “We really are in a good position as a band, because Gekko‘s style of writing lyrics and Risto‘s way of creating tunes is a match made in heaven.” Alive tries to answer the question, should one drive pedal to the metal all the time or hit the brakes at least in the curves?!?”
