Moscow's Under Delusion crank it up on single, "Awaken"
Out officially on December 24th, 2021, Under Delusion are ending their year with a massive new single titled “Awaken”. Please read on for our full review of the track, as well as a background on the band.
Based out of Moscow, Russia, Under Delusion are a female-fronted rock group that are creating exemplary music fueled by guitar riffs and explosive synth grooves. They’re bringing a fresh take on alternative rock and their all new single “Awaken” has been the perfect way to close out our year. Without a doubt, we can’t wait for everyone to check out this single as soon as possible.
Infusing their lifelong love of music into something original for themselves, the band is consistently covering different themes of love, anger, loss, and honest reflections of life. While the lyricism on “Awaken” is incredibly strong in all regards, so much of what we’ve loved about it is the inventiveness within the production and instrumentation. In the alternative rock genre nowadays, it feels like there’s so much of the same coming out, however what they’ve created here is actually original and fresh.
As this was our first introduction to the music of Under Delusion, undoubtedly we know we’ll be doing a deep dive on the rest of their discography just based on this song. It’s just the type of music we enjoy in our personal listening time, so to get to explore a relatively underground rock band like this is a total treat and pleasure. Additionally, we can only imagine how powerful these songs would translate in a live setting. If they ever find themselves on tour out in Los Angeles where we are, we’d love to get to a show to see it happen!
Lastly, we can’t wait to see what else unfolds in the New Year for the band. It appears as though they stayed consistent with their releases in 2021, so here’s to hoping that 2022 is their best year yet. In the meantime, of course we recommend you check out the links below where you can get listening, follow along on their social media, and keep up with everything else on the way. Enjoy!
