New York, NY (Top40 Charts) MODERN HARD ROCK BAND: AWAKEN have released their next single "Stained Glass" from their up and coming album Monsters and Machines due out in 2021. Having signed with TLG Entertainment the band continues to take each track and raise it another level. Which if today's stereos had decent equalizers a true test of turning it up loud would make every sound Awaken touches pure Hard Rock. Having set course with TLG Entertainment with their first single "Behemoth" Awaken defines their sound and deeper-reaching lyrics higher and higher as "Stained Glass" proves. Awaken is powerful rock that surges onwards and upwards.
'"Stained Glass" is a song for the overlooked. It's a song that speaks for those who have been prejudged, counted out, or taken for granted without their situations being understood. It's about how people can look at another through a stained glass lens and never really see who they are. This was actually one of the first songs written for the record, musically and lyrically. It's always been one that stood out to us throughout the recording process."' - Awaken
