After five long years from their latest release, Finnish metallers Suotana have emerged straight from the everfrost with a new album
‘’Ounas I’’. This full-length release is an epic continuation of the journey its predecessor ‘’Land of the Ending Time’’ began in 2018,
and propels the band to a new height.
‘’Ounas I’’ contains 41 freezing minutes of music, including five brand-new Suotana tracks and one ‘Suotanized’ version of
Summoning’s “Land of the Dead”.The album artwork captures the atmosphere of northern nature and landscapes from which the
band was born.
Guitarist and songwriter Ville Rautio states,”’Ounas I’ is a concept album which carries the listener through the ages, binding ancient
history and the present day. The journey’s epic finale is a 13-minute mammoth of a song, ‘River Ounas’. This black metal-infused
odyssey leads us to the current time, where preserving nature's diversity is becoming more relevant than ever before.”
Musically, the album introduces nuances while remaining firmly planted in familiar Suotana sounds, including melodic death metal,
melodic black metal, and a dash of power metal. The most remarkable differences are the guests on the album. Keyboard player
Veli-Matti Kananen (Kalmah) and female vocalist Mora contribute their own unique talents.
The current lineup includes vocalist Tuomo Marttinen, guitarist Pasi Portaankorva, keyboardist Tommi Neitola, bassist Rauli
Alaruikka, and drummer Rauli Juopperi.Suotana’s catalog contains a common thread: music and cover artwork are carefully
interwoven to draw an impressive portrait of vast, deserted winter landscapes, whose gloomy atmosphere of oppressive loneliness
runs like a heavy, dark band through the entire work
