Sound Awake is the second studio album by Australian progressive rock band Karnivool, released on 5 June 2009. The album follows a four year gap since their debut studio album Themata in 2005. The first single from the album, "Set Fire to the Hive", was released on 28 April 2009. A video for the single was then released on 8 May. On 28 May 2009, a finished track from the album which had been premiered live earlier, "New Day", was uploaded to Karnivool's MySpace page. Two days later, on 30 May, the entire album was uploaded. The album was released on 5 June 2009 through Cymatic Records and distributed by Sony Music Australia. Sound Awake was produced by Forrester Savell (The Butterfly Effect, Dallas Frasca) and recorded at Perth’s Blackbird and Kingdom Studios over several months. It was later mixed at Melbourne's Sing Sing Studios and mastered by Tom Coyne (DJ Shadow, The Roots) at Sterling Sounds in New York. In a interview bassist Jon Stockman describes the differences between the band's two albums. The main difference would be that the bulk of Themata was written by Drew and arranged by a few of us whereas both the writing and arranging for Sound Awake was much more of a collaborative effort from everyone. In addition to that, a lot of Themata was written straight to a recording session before ever being played as a band, whereas we pretty much wrote most of the Sound Awake in a jam-room environment. —Jon Stockman[3] The name of the album was conceived by Drew Goddard and the album cover artwork was undertaken by graphic designers, Joe Kapiteyn and Chris Frey. We originally wanted a foldout design but found that the standard book worked better with the number of artwork pictures that we had in mind. In the end, the final cover was a mixture of input from all the band and Joe. —Jon Stockman[3] Sound Awake was played as the 'feature album' on radio station Triple J.[4] They played one song every day and have now played the whole album, with some songs featuring short spoken introductions by members of the band. On the 17 July, 2009 it was nominated for a J Award - 'Australian Album of the Year'.[5] The album debuted at number two on the ARIA Album Charts on 15 June 2009, behind The Black Eyed Peas' The E.N.D..[6] It was also the top independent release in Australia, debuting at number one on the AIR Charts.[7] The album received Gold certification for sales in Australia. The second single from the album was revealed as "All I Know" on the band's MySpace. The single was released on November 9, 2009, along with an accompanying music video.
