Our Take
Our Take
Hold onto your floral head crowns because Swallow the Sun are back with their latest opus, "Moonflowers." This album is a journey through the darkest corners of the human soul, a swirling vortex of emotion that will leave you gasping for air.
From the haunting melodies of "Moonflower" to the thunderous riffs of "Woven into Sorrow," Swallow the Sun have crafted a masterpiece that is equal parts beauty and brutality. The juxtaposition of Mikko Kotamaki's guttural screams and Juha Raivio's ethereal guitar work creates a sonic landscape that is both mesmerising and terrifying.
Tracks like "Doomed to Walk the Earth" and "Here on the Black Earth" showcase Swallow the Sun's ability to blend melodic death metal with doom and gothic influences, creating a sound that is uniquely their own. And let's not forget the epic closer, "The Void," which takes us on a nine-minute journey through the depths of despair and longing.
Overall, "Moonflowers" is a triumph for Swallow the Sun, showcasing their growth as musicians and songwriters. So grab a bottle of your finest red wine, light some candles, and prepare to be taken on a journey through the shadows of your soul with Swallow the Sun's "Moonflowers." It's a wild ride you won't soon forget. Trust us.

About the artist
Swallow the Sun
Swallow the Sun: Finland's Melancholic Metal Maestros Hailing from the land of a thousand lakes, Swallow the Sun have been making waves in the metal scene since their formation in 2000. With a sound that combines the crushing weight of doom metal with the melodic sensibilities of gothic metal, these Finnish maestros have carved out a unique niche for themselves in the world of extreme music. Led by the enigmatic frontman Mikko Kotamäki, whose guttural growls can send shivers down your spine, Swallow the Sun's music is a sonic journey through the darkest recesses of the human soul. Their lyrics, steeped in themes of death, despair, and existential angst, are bound to strike a chord with anyone who has ever felt the crushing weight of the world on their shoulders. But don't let the bleak subject matter fool you – Swallow the Sun know how to bring the riffs. Their guitar work, courtesy of Juha Raivio and Juho Räihä, is nothing short of mesmerising, weaving intricate melodies and bone-crunching chords in equal measure. And with the thunderous rhythm section of drummer Juuso Raatikainen and bassist Matti Honkonen holding it all together, Swallow the Sun's live shows are a force to be reckoned with. Whether you're a die-hard metalhead or just looking to expand your musical horizons, Swallow the Sun are a band that demands your attention. So grab a beer, crank up the volume, and let the darkness wash over you – you won't regret it.
