Swedish Alternative Metal act Aviana is back, heavier- and more angry than ever before.

A lot of people suffered great losses and saw dark times last year.
Joel Holmqvist, vocalist of Swedish Metalcore act AVIANA was one of those.
Despite a succesful sophomore album-release in 2019 with ‘Epicenter’ (via Arising Empire)
all his former band mates declared they were leaving the band in March 2020.

However, Joel told early on that he was not done with Aviana and decided to continue the band himself.
Since then, he have gathered strength throughout the pandemic to build something new, special- and the next chapter of Aviana.
On the 5th of February Aviana is finally back with new music!

– “I was in a dark place for a long time when my former band mates decided to leave the band. It was hard!
I think this song as a start reflects all those feelings and thoughts that I had to fight during that difficult time.” says Joel Holmqvist.

The new Aviana sound is heavier than ever before and gives a taste of what is to come, Joel assures.
As it’s been seen in the bands social media lately, the Swede has been teasing of a new start with old content being removed and new cryptic messages and content taking place in early February.

– “I’m building this up with the new Aviana now. There’s a new chapter, a new story and a new era coming!” Joel finishes.
