Heavy icons KAMELOT, one of the most innovative and renowned bands in modern symphonic metal, present their most introspective, uplifting and vital work to date - their first album in five years, 2023, aptly titled The Awakening. "The Power of One" - what does that mean for modern symphonic/gothic metal masters KAMELOT? Above all, it means sticking to a single vision from start to finish, and that's exactly what has enabled the multinational quintet to be the leading force in their field for around 25 years. On their 13th studio album, The Awakening, the band explicitly invites listeners to discover "the power of one" within themselves too. With the passionate songwriting, complex musicianship and polished production that has always made KAMELOT a remarkable act, the LP offers a more varied, uplifting and introspective journey than its sombre predecessor The Shadow Theory.
