Fixation is set to make a resounding impact with their highly anticipated debut album, "More Subtle Than Death"!
September 8th Fixation is finally ready to unleash their debut album "More Subtle Than Death", and will be touring Europe with the new album in October together with Annisokay!
Fixation's music seamlessly weaves heavy guitar riffs, electronic textures, and infectious choruses, leaving audiences craving more. Their raw talent and impactful music have already garnered praise from notable media outlets across the world such as Kerrang! Magazine, NRK, Metal Hammer and BBC. The nine-track masterpiece delves into subjects such as mental health, climate crisis, and social criticism, delivering a thought-provoking journey that demands attention.
Fixation states: “We didn’t want to limit ourselves to one particular sound, although the album sounds like Fixation as a whole, there are songs that are more poppy, more heavy, more grandiose and symphonic and more straight forward rock songs. The subjects in the songs are things that frightens and worries us about the state of the world today. These are things that we want to see change in.”
Fixation combines electronic elements, stadium rock, and post-metal to create a unique and emotionally charged sound, drawing inspiration from bands like Bring Me The Horizon, Architects and Muse.
In 2023 Fixation has started to solidity their position as one of the most promising new bands in the rock and metal scene. Starting 2023 with an extensive tour with Devin Townsend in Europe (32 dates), and then appearing at festivals like Eurosonic, Download, Rock Imperium and Prognosis.

It's safe to say that with an astonishing 60+ European live dates combined in 2023, their captivating performances have earned them a reputation as a must-see live act that gets them booked over and over again.
Fixation's debut album showcases their ability to traverse genres and tackle relatable topics, appealing to a wide range of listeners.

With rising popularity and an exciting year ahead, Fixation is undoubtedly staking their claim as a rising force in the music scene.

lyrics
Lyrics:
We're all villains in your eyes.
Always looking for someone that you can blame.
But there's no ground beneath your feet,
and your absent evidence is proof enough.
You are dead set
that the facts won't slow you down
and you are consumed.
What if I told you the waves will crash?
Would you drown or swim to the surface?
Even if the truth is all we have,
you'll still drown and you'll bleed and you'll suffocate.
Cause even if you see it, you probably won't believe it.
Before it's too late.
Cause we're all suddenly unified
when it ends.
Do you know
if you're looking through a window
or at a mirror?
Misinformation can't be falsified,
when you make up the outcome as you speak.
When truth becomes whatever you decide,
what's reality?

Fixation is a brand-new melodic metalcore band who freely combine electronic elements with stadium rock and metal. Whenever
the music reaches the depths of it’s 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....more
Perhaps a softer, more “pop-forward” album compared to Inmazes and Witness however equally as effective. Vola simply know how to make approachable and great music. 8/10 RJ
Every single member of this band is incredibly skilled in their own right, but I love how much they accentuate each other's talents into these masterful tracks. The whole album is excellent. I'm so happy they were finally able to come to my home state and perform.
Incredible band, can't wait to listen to what comes next. quantumquail
