New single

All It Takes.

it was pulled earlier, but now it's back. I guess it's an older tune they have played live, but now recorded and released.

Welcome

Hello new friend.

Thanks for signing up to karnivool.com

Over the next year we have a hectic schedule planned, and hope to visit old friends and new all over the planet in support of our new album.

You will hear about it first, so tighten the seat belt and batten the hatches. It is (finally) coming!

I call shenanigans on a new album until I have it in my hands.  And will it be any good?  They’ve been “working” on this album for so long that whatever mojo they had would seem to be seriously dissipated at this point. I don’t entirely understand their inner band dynamics, but from what I’ve gleaned from Facebook and other places, it seems like Drew Goddard has been the main factor holding things up. Ian Kenny has been busy with Birds of Tokyo, and honestly, I’d imagine that Birds is way more lucrative financially at this point, since they work way more consistently and have a much wider audience than the Vool now.

LOVE Karnivool. I bought the Blu-ray of their covid livestream. It included the unaired version of one of their new songs and it was amazing.

I'm not sure why it takes these guys so long. Yes, other bands, etc., but are any of them the draw of Karnivool? Karnivool is an international band at this point. Is anything else they do at that level?

Fingers crossed the new record comes this year.

Their set opening for Porcupine Tree back on The Incident Tour in San Francisco was mind blowing.

Birds of Tokyo, of which Ian Kenny is the vocalist, is probably quite a bit more popular in Australia than Karnivool, and way more prolific.  I think they've released 3 albums, 2 eps, 1 greatest hits collection, and numerous additional singles since 2013.  They've had almost no traction in the US, though.  I remember seeing them on Jimmy Kimmel about the time they released their single Lanterns, which was a huge hit pretty much every where else, but I don't think it led to a US tour or anything.  It's weird too, because Lanterns did get radio play around the time of its release here in the US.  Anyway, Birds is a chart-topping act in Australia and other places and Karnivool has largely been out of the public eye aside from a few tours.

Interesting. I'll check it out. Just a huge bummer on Karnivool not being able to get out there more.

Been hoping for a return visit to the U.S. since 2012 when I saw them open for Porcupine Tree in San Francisco. After 12 years, and touring the way it is, doubtful, at least in the U.S. Which sucks.

Seeing them live again at a festival this summer. The thing is that especially Sound Awake is so good they can still get away with just touring.

I also have that covid stream on blu-ray, I also watched it live when they aired it. Great performance with amazing sound quality.

Same. My fam and I are all fans. So we've watched it several times now. SO good.
