Budapest, Hungary’s dark hardcore band OAKEN team up with Alerta Antifascista Records and Chariot Of Black Moth videographer to give you a proper video teaser for the band’s new LP, to be released in February! Check it out below and feel free to contact the band via [email protected] to book them for some Scandinavian dates on their tour in May.
Formed from hungarian screamo/crust/hardcore bands in 2012 for the purpose to use a slightly different songwriting approach concerning orchestration and length. Oaken presents savage overpowering drift with grim, atmospheric sound adding instruments uncommon in dark hardcore music like percussions and synthesiser. Slow passages blow up into the mixture of crushing hardcore riffs and monumental, eerie melodies backed by wide range of vocals with fierce lows.
