Artist to Artist interview at CVLT Nation
Since CVLT Nation’s great review of our debut 7″ was published, we were asked to take part in their Artist to Artist interview series. Of course we couldn’t say no, so we teamed up with our friends in Walk Through Fire and the interview was conducted between Sonny Stark of Age of Woe and Ufuk Demir of Walk Through Fire.
Today, part one of this interview – where Sonny answer questions from Ufuk – has been published online over at CVLT Nation’s website. Tomorrow you can read the second part of the interview, where Ufuk will answer questions from Sonny, so be sure to check that out as well.
As if that wasn’t enough, Age of Woe will also be featured in the Sonic Cathedrals mixtape series that will be launched soon. We’ll keep you posted on that!

Leaving 2011 in the dust…
2011 was a great year in many ways for Age of Woe. We recorded and released our debut 7″ EP in September, and digitally through Pivotal Rockordings in December, which received a lot of positive reactions and great reviews all around.
To promote the release, we decided to live stream a short set we played at the Belly of the Whale studio in Gothenburg. It was a very cool event and nothing any of us had ever done before. It turned out to be more successful than we’d ever thought it could be. Hopefully we will be able to release this live recording in some way during 2012.
We also played a lot of cool shows during the year, including a mini-tour in Germany. We ended the year by playing at the Scorched Tundra Festival at Sticky Fingers in Gothenburg together with As You Drown, Zombiekrig, Marionette and Eldrimner. It was a great night and a lot of people attended this newborn festival.
During the second part of 2011 we started to work on the next big project, which will be our first full length album. It culminated in a trip to a cottage in the woods, where we isolated ourselves for a week to work more intensely on the album. The recording of this album are planned for April/May, and so far it looks very promising.
We know that this year will be even more productive and intense for Age of Woe. For starters, we have a European tour coming up in April and even more shows to be confirmed during the first part of 2012. We are also working on some other cool stuff that we hope can be revealed soon, so stay alert and keep your eyes open.

Lukinzine presents new AOW video
We proudly announce that Lukinzine exclusively have published the first Age of Woe video. The following text is taken from Lukinzine:
“Sometimes you feel the rush of blood coming fast and hit you hard whether it’s a party in town, Christmas Eve or New Year’s, and today is just such a day. Lukinzine can namely, totally exclusive and proudly, present the new and first video from Age of Woe! The video for the song, The Antagonist, comes from their self-titled debut EP which was released on 14/11 this year, and is made in a way that is a true tribute to the DIY spirit. In other words expect something that is just as raw as the music and the injustices that thrive in our harsh and cold society. What the hell, just click this link, start watching, spread the word and feel good about yourself!”
