Fixation

Fixation from Norway is challenging genres combining elements from metalcore, stadium rock and post metal with electronic elements and dynamic melodious synthesizers. Catchy riffs, striking vocal performances and heavy bass and drum rhythms makes them a roller coaster of melancholic aggression. With earnest lyrics and a refreshing take on social criticism they convey interpretation of current affairs in their writing. Whenever the music reaches the depths of its beautiful and soft vulnerability, you’re abruptly hurled back up again by aggressive riffs and bass lines. The result is compelling and massive music that appeals to a generation rather than to fans of one specific genre. 

Their debut EP Global Suicide released fall of 2020 and received impressive response from media“…simply an impressive debut! If this had been a full-fledged album, it would very much have reached Album of the Year lists.” – Norway Rock Magazine. “Sounds like a million dollars. There is so much talent here that it is almost touching, and what an amazing vocalist this band has in Jonas Hansen! It is simply a revelation. Wow !!” – Metal Hammer Norway

In 2021 Fixation finally got the chance to play live and performed at the By:larm festival, Musikkfest festival and the Rockstream festival in Norway amongst other. They got referred to as “The most promising rockband at the by:larm festival” by the Norwegian newspapers Dagsavisen.

November 17th 2021, they released a single titled Stay Awake; “It’s a huge sound from a band that’s going to be absolutely massive” Kerrang Radio (UK). “Stay Awake” got picked up by international media and radio and was featured on BBC Radio 1 Rock Show with Daniel P. Carter, as well as Kerrang Magazine (UK), Radio Rock Nuevo (NO) and Kaaoszine (FIN) to mention some.

Fixation’s second single “Claustrophobic” from their upcoming debut album will be out January 27th 2022.
