Christian metal newcomers Ashes Awaken are gearing up to drop their debut full length “Rise” on February 6, 2026 , delivering a heavy hitting mix of melodic firepower, faith driven intensity, and the kind of emotional weight that sticks with you long after the final note fades. Rooted firmly in the worlds of Christian Metal and Melodic Metal , the band channels the towering vocals and inspirational grit of Stryper , the modern punch of Skillet , and the hard edged energy of Killswitch Engage , forging a sound that speaks to both seekers and metal lifers alike.

Produced and recorded by bandleader Michael Stover under the banner of MTS Records and managed by MTS Management Group , “Rise” brings together heaping riffs, soaring melodies, and lyrics built around redemption, resilience, and the unshakable strength of faith. Ashes Awaken carry themselves like a band with something real to say, and they aren’t shy about saying it loud.

“ ‘Rise’ is more than just a record, it’s a resurrection ,” says Stover. “These songs were born out of struggle, doubt, and ultimately faith. Every riff, every lyric is about finding light in the wreckage and standing back up when the world tries to bury you. It’s our way of saying that no matter how dark it gets, Jesus still gives us the strength to rise.”

Ashes Awaken have built their identity around a mission as fierce as their sound, uniting spiritual conviction with metal’s raw, cathartic power. Their music strikes that rare middle ground where heavy meets hopeful, proving that metal can crush the spirit’s enemies while lifting the listener up in the same breath.

“Rise” drops February 6, 2026 on all major platforms.
