“German Metalcore heroes claw their way to top-dog status” – Metal Hammer

German metalcore powerhouse Annisokay, led by vocalist and producer Chris Wieczorek (Sawdust Recording), have announced the rerelease of hit album Aurora (Special Edition) due for a 2022 release. Along with the special edition record, the band also release remastered single ‘Coma Blue’ via Arising Empire.

Aurora (Special Edition) will be available in CD formats and limited coloured vinyl options, holding three absolute classics remastered with ‘Coma Blue’, ‘Good Stories’ and their Japanese bonus track ‘Parallel Universe’ that has never been released worldwide, together with a full live set that now includes fresh line up with new frontman Rudi Schwarzer.

Annisokay reinvented themselves on their fifth studio album Aurora, which was released earlier this year via Arising Empire and entered at #18 in the official German album charts. The album was the first to feature the band’s new frontman and heavy vocalist Rudi Schwarzer – a long-time friend of the band – who stepped into the role in late 2019. Once again guitarist/clean vocalist Christoph Wieczorek oversaw production duties on the album, which is full of heavy riffs, driving percussion, melodic, goosebump-inducing cleans and aggressive shouts. The quartet is completed by drummer Nico Vaeen and bassist Norbert Rose.

Formed in 2007, Annisokay are at the forefront of German metal with their cutting edge sound, which has earned them huge success at home and has seen them breakthrough internationally. The four-piece have embarked on successful tours throughout Europe, the UK, Japan and the USA, including several headline shows in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine, a US run with I Set My Friends On Fire, two sold-out shows in Russia supporting Parkway Drive, and, more recently, the Xmas Bash Tour with Emil Bulls, which marked Schwarzer‘s first tour with the band.

Annisokay’s first three studio albums were released through Long Branch Records/SPV, all of which charted in the Top 100 Official German Album Charts. In 2018, the band signed to Arising Empire to release their fourth studio album Arms, which reached #26 in the German charts. In January 2021, Annisokay released their most recent album Aurora, which charted at #18 – their highest German chart entry to date.

Annisokay will embark on a European headline tour in 2022, with support from Future Palace and Set Your Sails.
