Another really powerful line is from Indifference, “Maybe I just feel numb”. As their first US tour came to a close in March of 2018, tragedy struck Awaken I Am on their home soil in Brisbane, Australia. Awaken I Am released their debut album Shields and Crowns in March 2015 including the singles Exposure, Landslide and The Depths featuring guest vocals from Jonny Craig. The emotions felt while listening to “The Stages of Grief” are on the same level as if you were listening to “3.17.16” by Secrets about the loss of Richard’s sister and “Eiley” by Too Close to Touch, about the loss of Keaton’s sister. The group formed in 2011 in and is currently composed of Adam Douglas (lead vocals), Ned Jankovic (lead guitar), Connor Verner-Oakley (rhythm guitar) and Luke McKenzie (drums). Awaken I Am, an Australian based metalcore band, formed by vocalist Adam Douglas in 2011. It feels as though you are on this emotional journey watching first hand while listening to each of these songs. There are so many stories waiting to be unfolded in each song and the entire EP as a whole. One of the hardest hitting lines is in Kin, “What I once loved now just brings pain and what brought pain has become my escape”. Like Adam, all of the anger, sadness, pain, realization and growth can be heard in Jimmy’s vocals. This music is much heavier than their last release while still maintaining the same kind of vibe. In this episode of the Third Eye Awakening podcast, I am so excited to have my friend jenniferlongmore Jennifer Longmore on the show Jennifer, Forensic Investigator turned international Soul Purpose and Money Mindset Expert, is a sought after media personality, 10-time best selling author, and creator of the 1 spiritual development training school in the world. I’ve always felt that Adam had a distinct voice but Jimmy certainly does not disappoint. Each song is just as powerful as the next and really showcase Jimmy’s incredible vocals. Aside from the loss of Connor which can be painful felt through the last track “The Stages of Grief”, this EP also outlines the tragedies surrounding a toxic relationship. There are five tracks on this release, “Kin”, “By Your Side”, “Dissolution”, “Indifference”, and “The Stages of Grief”. It is instransitive - it means to change from being asleep to being awake. The verb to awaken (awaken, awoke, awoken). It is the opposite in meaning of the adjective asleep. The word awake is an adjective, not a verb. Awaken I Am will be supporting Secrets this May on their Fragile Figures Anniversary tour. Answer (1 of 4): There are three verbs: to awaken, to wake and to wake up. This EP was produced by Taylor Lawson who also produced Blind Love and has the same kind of raw emotional vibe as the album. Prior to this EP, the band had one single featuring the new vocalist called “Dissolution”. The band was on tour in Australia with Secrets when the tragedy happened. First they got a new vocalist, Jimmy Stevenson and most recently lost their guitarist Connor which is what inspired the new music. They’ve recently experienced a new line up change since their last release “Blind Love”. Awaken I Am are a band from Australia who have recently toured with Slaves, CKY, Picturesque, and Secrets.
