Annisokay have been captivating audiences since their formation in 2007. With their exceptional blend of heavy guitar riffs, driving drum rhythms, melodic clean vocals and aggressive shouts, the band has amassed a dedicated and rapidly growing fanbase across the globe.
The freshly released Abyss Pt I EP stands as a powerful testament to the complexities of the human experience. Through evocative lyrics, the tracks articulate the profound bond between individuals who value their unique characteristics and shared worldviews. There's an undeniable emphasis on cherishing individuality, seeing beyond the superficial, and acknowledging the intrinsic worth that each person holds.
Annisokay do not stop at personal connections. Their new tracks take listeners on a journey through the depths of the human psyche, weaving existential ponderings with spiritual revelations. Themes surrounding the impermanence of life, the unyielding flow of time, and the interconnectedness of all entities resonate deeply, compelling listeners to confront their innermost fears, desires, and search for meaning.
Furthermore, the Abyss Pt I EP offers introspective reflections on humanity's relationship with our planet. It underscores the inner conflict between personal desires, societal ambitions, and the often-neglected considerations of sustainability and ethics. The songs paint a picture of the tension and potential fallout of our actions, serving as both a warning and an in-depth study of the human condition.
In summary, Annisokay's new EP is not just a collection of songs, but a profound exploration of what it means to be human, in relation to oneself, others, and the world at large. It promises to engage, challenge, and resonate with listeners, inviting them to reflect on their place in the grand tapestry of life.

With a penchant for exploring dark moods and themes, Annisokay's lyrics tackle social issues, human emotions, and the complexities of relationships.
