The recently debuted unit Zeke Deux continues to break into the visual kei scene and presents the new demo Awake～From The Darkness～, a second cassette tape to be released on March 16, 2022. Fans can already secure their copy pre-ordering online via Starwave Records.
Following their first demo Zero, Zeke Deux stays on the path of heavy metal with symphonic elements and brings out the song “Awake～From The Darkness～”, a resonant melody with intense and rapid drumming, accompanied by a dual guitar solo and a long instrumental part that will lead the audience into a frenzy at concerts. The music video showcases the elegant visuals of the band that exudes an enchanting aura.
As the line “Let’s cherish the miracles that were born along with the suffering” states, Zeke Deux urges the listener to learn from the sorrows of the past, embrace the light of the present and get on track to a brighter future.
The tape includes the companion track “Dragon Heart”, a song with the essence of power metal featuring shredding guitars and a fast-paced rhythm.
Amid the anticipation of new material after their debut in November 2021, Zeke Deux treated fans —particularly anime lovers— with the covers on YouTube of “Guren no Yumiya” and “Pegasus Fantasy”, opening themes of Attack on Titan and Saint Seiya series, respectively.
Zeke Deux is working with full determination to make a mark on the scene and bring joy to others through music.
