Age of Emergence formed in the Australian Newcastle region in 2013 by ex-Shambhala members Dean Holmes and Allan Hofer. They teamed up with Order of the Dragon guitarist Matt Neilson. After many free form jam sessions, a set of originals began to take shape. After a year of gigging locally the band recorded their first EP in 2017 “Plea for a Dying World” and continued to gig regularly in the Newcastle and Sydney areas to good responses from the local metal scene. In 2020 the band released their follow-up EP “The War Within Ourselves “ with new drummer Benn Baxter and planned an extensive east coast tour but then the COVID pandemic struck putting plans on hold.
The band finally completed their first tour in 2022 playing Newcastle, Sydney, Canberra, Bathurst, Wollongong etc and then continued developing new material for their current release “The All Seeing Eye:Part 1”, with their latest new drummer Adam Clayton on the skins, which will be released on April 12, 2024.
