History
editNu-Nation was formed in 2009 by the musicians of several local bands who wanted to play groove metal in the vein of Soulfly. Their first long-play 'Wake Up', was released in 2012, and proved popular with fans of nu-metal and groove metal. Following this, the band had some line-up and style changing. Another album 'The Awakening' came out in 2014, it has a more extreme sound and darker atmosphere. In early 2016, the band released their last album, 'Insomnia', much more brutal but melodic as well, with a lot of music styles and elements mixed. The album received favorable reviews.[2][3][1]
