Formation of Until I Wake
Until I Wake was formed in 2019 in Buffalo, New York. The original lineup included singer and frontman Cody Jamison, guitarist August Geitner, bassist Ryan Ridley, and drummer Alex Curtain. The band's formation marked the beginning of a new post-hardcore act focused on addressing mental health and addiction through their music, aiming to bring awareness and encourage open conversation about these issues.
2021
Signing with Fearless Records and Release of First EP
In 2021, Until I Wake signed with the independent record label Fearless Records, known for its roster of punk and post-hardcore acts. That year, the band released their self-titled debut EP, marking their official entry into the music industry. They also produced their first music video for the song "Nightmares," expanding their reach and visual presence. This period solidified the band's sound and began to attract a following within the post-hardcore scene.
2022
Release of First Album "Inside My Head" and Touring
Before releasing their debut full-length album, Until I Wake released the single "Forsaken," which was featured on the upcoming album. Later in 2022, the band released their first major album titled "Inside My Head," which showcased their blend of energetic post-hardcore with themes of mental health struggles and personal resilience. The album was supported by the release of a music video for the track "Octane." Subsequently, Until I Wake toured with established US-based bands Attack Attack! and Conquer Divide, gaining exposure and touring experience.

Lineup Changes and Increased Touring Activity
In 2023, Until I Wake expanded their lineup with the addition of guitarist Niko Karras. This year involved extensive touring, including performances with bands like Versus Me, If Not For Me, Vilified, and Solarset at the Canal Club in Richmond, Virginia. They also toured with Thousand Below as a special guest band, and later with Attila, Gideon, and Ten56. They released the music video for "Fool's Paradise" and in November issued a deluxe version of their album "Inside My Head," reflecting their growing artistic output and increasing fan engagement.

Vocalist Change and Release of Second Album "Renovate"
In 2024, frontman Cody Jamison departed the band to pursue another project and was replaced by new singer Jaali Cypher. This marked a significant transition in the band's dynamic and vocal style.

Story of Until I Wake
Buffalo, New York's post-hardcore/metalcore band, Until I Wake, unleashed their highly anticipated debut album, Inside My Head, on September 9th via Fearless Records. Discovered in early 2022, their early releases piqued my interest. The album, produced by Nick Matzkows and Jon Eberhard (known for their work with I Prevail, Conquer Divide, and The True Blue), draws influence from artists like Pierce The Veil, Linkin Park, Underoath, blessthefall, and Bring Me The Horizon. While the band cites multiple influences, Linkin Park's impact is particularly evident in Until I Wake's incorporation of rap vocals. Inside My Head is a solid debut, though future projects would benefit from enhanced mixing and mastering.
