Adult Swim Singles have shared a new song by prolific industrial / noise / metal group Uniform as the eleventh entry in the 2019-2020 program. Recently expanded to a trio with the addition of drummer Mike Sharp, “Awakening” serves as the first taste of a new song cycle that doubles down on the most immediate aspects of the band’s sound.

“Stylistically, it’s far more dance-oriented than we’re typically accustomed to,” states vocalist Michael Berdan. “The song was originally commissioned by my friend Adam Fuchs for the Adult Swim Singles Program, whose departed brother Jerry was one of the finest disco drummers who ever lived as well as one of the most spectacular friends I will ever have. I like to think of this song as a tribute to Jerry. ‘Awakening’ is about the daily frustrations of a complacent existence in late capitalism. Some might take it as a protest song. However, it’s to be implied that waking up with a deep-seeded anger is something that happens every day. We know they are mad, but we don’t know if anything will ever change.”
