Haken announce new EP ‘in a fever dream’

HAKEN have announced a brand new EP!

Titled in a fever dream, the upcoming release from the UK progressive metal band is set for release digitally on July 17th, with physical CD and vinyl editions following on September 18th. The EP is the follow-up to 2023’s Fauna and sees the band working with producer George Lever (LOATHE, SLEEP TOKEN), while featuring bass contributions from Bryan Beller (JOE SATRIANI, THE ARISTOCRATS) and Adam ‘Nolly’ Getgood (PERIPHERY).

Speaking about the EP, the band shares, “this EP was born from a period of reflection and rediscovery. Over the last few years, we’ve faced challenges that forced us to look inward, both as musicians and as people, and the songs on this record are the result of that journey.
We allowed ourselves to be completely honest in the writing process, digging into real experiences, doubts, and emotions rather than hiding behind them. That vulnerability gave these songs a weight and purpose unlike anything we’ve created before.

Musically, we pushed ourselves into new territory, embracing fresh influences while holding onto the intensity and identity that define this band. Working with producer George Lever helped us sharpen that vision, and Vada Studios provided the perfect environment to collaborate and bring it to life. This EP captures a moment in time of us finding our feet again – moving forward, taking risks, and creating from a place that feels as genuine as we have ever been.”

Alongside the announcement, the band have released the new single, delirium. The new song is the latest single to be released from the upcoming EP, following on from bleeding sky and in a fever dream.
