Awoken Shadows bring to life a theatrical side to metalcore that you must see!

June 5, 2014

We recently told you about the amazing night on Sunday as we covered Cherri Bomb at the DNA Show in San Francisco. Another great band we must tell you about is Awoken Shadows who we have been waiting to once again catch live! We will also be bringing you coverage on the opening bands of A Hero to Fall, Oh! The Horror and Chapters. We have been following the fast rise of Awoken Shadows after first seeing them perform earlier this year at Ace of Spades opening for Escape The Fate. They instantly caught our eye and we were sad we got there to only catch a couple songs. But this time, we were excited to see Awoken Shadows perform at the DNA Lounge and we were not going to miss any of their set! Check out the photos from Rockin Ryan of their set and when they came back out to perform a kick ass last song of the night with Cherri Bomb. These guys successfully bring out a theatrical side to metal that is something you have [Read More]
