Awake By Design are a 6-piece melodic metal band from the UK.

​

With hundreds of thousands of plays across multiple streaming platforms, and having supported bands such as Apocalyptica, Amorphis, Evergrey, My Dying Bride, Queensrÿche (and more!), ABD are continuing to refine their signature blend of Maiden-style vocal melodies, crushing Killswitch riffs and Zimmer-esque epic grandeur.

​

Following a high-octane performance on Bloodstock’s Sophie Lancaster Stage, Awake By Design have recorded a brand new album, due for release later in 2026, and have big plans to bring their newest sound to venues across the UK.
