Following the success of their single, Burn, released late last year, Australian alt-rock band Vermantics are set to drop the music video for their universally praised single Come Alive.
Come Alive is all groove. It sucks you in from the jump with an ethereal falsetto over thundering bass and drums before the verse grinds away in this same fashion until exploding with roaring guitars during the minimalistic chorus. The result is equal parts beauty and raw power.
The single was produced by Vermantics alongside renowned producer, Phil Threlfall, who also mixed the tracks, with mastering done by Grammy-nominated and ARIA Award-winning engineer, Andrei Eremin.
The choice of the band to take a more stripped-back, raw approach than on previous releases serves to amplify the thunder of rhythm section members – Julian Perrotta (drums) and Daniel Fedele (bass). This creates a solid foundation for vocalist, Stefan Fedele, and lead guitarist, Jack Stevenson, to wail over with reckless abandon.
“We have this big energy when we play live so we really leaned into that on these tracks” says drummer Julian Perrotta.
After playing multiple shows across Australia and opening for Australian icons like The Superjesus and British India, as well as U.S rock legends, Highly Suspect,Vermantics are set to make moves in the UK music scene in 2025 as they embark on their first international tour. The band is excited to announce a string of UK show dates in May, bringing their electrifying live show to fans across the country.
