About Me


Awaiting Dawn is a band from the middle-rhine-area which has been formed in 2005 by members of different bands.
Our style can be classified as a mixture of various rock-genres (Melodic Metal, Alternative Rock, Progressive Metal).
It is based on fast and fulminating drums, extensive driving bass-lines and falls in place with complex, interdigitating guitars with rapid solos and melodic polyphonic vocals. What marks out our style is mostly high speed times, many dynamic contrasts and progressive elements like change of measure and time, as well as difficult figures. Thereby we always try to create catchy songs, so we cover a wide range of sometimes more progressive and sometimes more simple-structured titles.
Most of our songs deliver a melancholic atmosphere, for they are very emotional and deal with love, pain, despair and confusion. Awaiting Dawn actually is not exactly fitting in any category and does not want to be categorized into some certain subgenre of Metal / Rock; in fact, they simply play Awaiting Dawn-Music.
