A COLD PARADISE Releases New Video Single “Waking Up”!

A COLD PARADISE, the modern metal project led by powerhouse vocalist Antonio Calanna (known from ALL FOR METAL), has dropped its brand-new video single “Waking Up”. Following previously-released singles, the track marks one of the band's most personal moments yet, and shows the project sharpening its mix of melodic heaviness, emotional grit, and cinematic intensity. With its powerful lyrics and moody atmosphere, "Waking Up" resonates with listeners craving honest reflection and atmospheric melodic metal sound.

Calanna explains the meaning behind the song in his own words:

“Waking Up is the moment A Cold Paradise truly opened its eyes. It’s a song about leaving the past behind, stepping out of the shadows, and finally chasing the rock’n’roll dreams we’ve carried for years. In a world, and especially in the metal scene, full of monsters you have to face, this track is our first real step forward. A huge thank you to Tim Hansen and Dominik Gusch, whose talent helped bring this song to life.”
