SWALLOW THE SUN haben Großes vor

Um SWALLOW THE SUN war es in letzter Zeit etwas ruhiger geworden, aber jetzt melden sich die Finnen mit einem Paukenschlag zurück: die Aufnahmen zu ihrem neuem Dreifach-(!)-Album "Songs From The North I, II & III" sind abgeschlossen. Im November erfolgt der Release via Century Media. 

Das an den Aufnahmen beteiligte Line-Up:

Juha Raivio - guitar
Markus Jämsen - guitar
Mikko Kotamäki - vocals
Matti Honkonen -bass
Aleksi Munter - keys
Juuso Raatikainen - drums
 

Songwriter Juha Raivio über das Album:

"Making a triple album in this godforsaken digital and modern day and age...Many will say it's madness. I say it is to bring worth, heart and respect back into the music and to the album format where it belongs. This should never turn into a shallow fast food industry where music is only downloaded one song at a time.

These albums hold life, death, gloom, beauty and despair in their deepest levels and forms. The three chapters are different but connected, one long journey through these songs written up here in the North. 

Music is holy, albums are holy. See you on the other side friends."
