About Me


Welcome to Sleeping Awake's MySpace

Hey all
Just dropin everyone a line to let u know Sleeping Awake will be having a break until later this year. Due to other commitments we feel that currently we have no other alternative but to stop the band and re-assess our situation at the end of this year. If we choose to get back into it we will pick up where we left off, if not i'd like to say thankyou for all of you who have supported us over the years, came to gigs, bought CD's and enjoyed our music.
CHEERS

Sleeping Awake
A bit about us: formed in 2000 Sleeping Awake is Western Sydney's own melodic metal band. Priding ourselves on our live shows we perform an intense setlist filled with heavy shit that people can bounce their head to. After going dark for a while Sleeping Awake is now emerging with a tighter sound and fucking heavy-as killer setlist. Avoiding the trends of the Emo (it feels dirty just to type the word), Screamo, Whinging vocal bullshit thats out there at the moment, we put together a set that will please metal heads, old skoolers and new skoolers alike. Put simply, if your fringe is the longest part of your hair, if you think your daddy hates you, if you wear kids sized tight jeans then let me save you the trouble and avoid our gigs. If you wanna come out for a night of heavy shit, sink some booze and just have a good fucking time listening to metal then we will see at the next Sleeping Awake gig you can catch.
PEACE

Hey all its been exactly 6 months to the day since my last post...thats a long time and a lot has happened. We have had a couple of gigs here and there which a lot of you have attended and the crowd response has been nothing short of incredible. Rest assured I will be organising a couple more in the weeks to come because the energy you feed us while we are on stage is addictive. In 6 months many of you have purchased the EP and to our surprise are even singing along at gigs...nothing can describe how we feel when we see that. I will be organising gigs up until around mid November and then we will be taking a break probably over Christmas.
On a personal note I am taking my vows and getting married on November 24th to my beautiful fiancée Jess and will be spending a few weeks over in Thailand we both can't wait.
Rest assured that after I get back the work will not stop as there has been talk amongst the band that its time to get into the studio again and we will be writing furiously to get the best material we can serve you all.
We thank all of you once again for coming to gigs supporting the band and most of all loving the music and we look forward to seeing you at the next S.A gig.
CHEERS

The CD has finally been released. Sleeping Awake wishes to thank anybody who had a hand in the process of this CD in any way. We couldnt have done it without you. That being said the work never stops as we have now set our sights on gigging and an EP launch. We have began talks with Anjeliina in regards to them supporting (check them out they fuckin rock heads) and we have looked at several venues, we are keeping it local for you guys and there will be an all ages for those of you yet to hit 18. Hope to see you guys at the next gig.Cheers
