Sleeping Giant recently premiered the lyric video for the brand new track, ‘Overthrow’ This will also serve as an initial offering from Sleeping Giant’s long awaited, 4th full length album, “Finished People”, which will be released on August 19th via Century Media Records. The album is the follow-up to “Kingdom Days in an Evil Age” which was released in 2011 via Ain’t No Grave Records. The video can be seen below.
Sleeping Giant represents a call to arms. More than a band, more than a group of close friends, Sleeping Giant is a unit of disciples who scream loud from deep in the underground to the highest of the heavens. The band will hit the road on the “Finished People Tour” presented by HM Magazine starting August 1 in Oklahoma City with This Or The Apocolypse, Phinehas, Those Fear and Silent Planet. Dates and locations are listed below.
“Since Sleeping Giant formed in 2006, they have been rewriting the definition of what it means to be Christians in a metal band,” wrote Relevant Magazine. “They pulverize all preconceived notions of worship music.”
They proclaim strength through submission to Jesus Christ across their latest album, “Kingdom Days in an Evil Age”. They’ve headlined Scream The Prayer; appeared at major Christian music festivals; toured with bands like Demon Hunter and Bleeding Through. Wherever they are called, their message remains the same: salvation.
In April 2012 we had the opportunity to do an interview with Sleeping Giant, you can find it here.
