“Dust on the shelves” was released 4 years ago. The video was directed by Ville Hoikkala, and featured Mary Violet and Olli Lukkari as lead actors. We shot the video in two days on a weekend, at a distant cabin in the woods. Ville was constantly afraid of the video being too much in the … Read more
Unzyme’s fifth album is well underway with the release of “Deep in my dome” on May 26th, 2023. The single will first be released on YouTube, followed by other streaming services a month later.
A few years ago we decided to participate in the Finnish division of the Eurovision song contest (UMK). This song is a bit different in tone, as it was specifically written for the competition. Lyrically this song is a bit of an oddball in the Unzyme catalogue, as it was written to be more straightforward. … Read more
“Harder to breathe” deals with the guilt of having passed on an extremely difficult situation to the next generation. Yet there’s the expectation for the young ones to step up and change the trajectory. It’s a heavy heritage, born out of selfishness, but which can only be fixed together. The colors of the video are … Read more
“Foreign agendas” is a B-side from the Forensics sessions. I made a lyric video for the song, which shows varied imagery from all over the world – including abandoned mines, and the cities and art that were built out of those minerals. Everything you choose to do, has a cost. It’s good to occasionally stop … Read more
We recorded this acoustic live version of “Never leave the shipyard” at my family cabin. My dear friend and a fantastic musician, Janne Malinen wrote the acoustic guitar arrangement of the song. I think he captured the heavy essence of the song, which is very sad, still and rather powerless. It’s a cry for something … Read more
We’re excited to announce that we’ll be opening for Apulanta at Tullikamari in two weeks – on October 14th! This is going to be fan-fucking-tastic. Explosions and mutations ahead!

We’re happy to announce two biomechanical pop shows at Jyväskylä Pride 2022. The first show will take place in Lounaispuisto, after the Pride March. The second and much longer show will be played at night at Aalto-Sali (entrance through Freetime). This is certainly not the first or last time we’ll be performing at Jyväskylä Pride.
Unzyme’s summer pop song from the upcoming album, Interference, is now available on all streaming services. Listening to the song is strongly recommended. It has several health benefits, like liberating from all kinds of rotten beliefs.
Another music video collaboration between the magnificent Sebastian Trzaska and Unzyme – Escaping the mirror. It’s a departure from what we’ve done before, but a lot of work was poured into this new kind of video concept as well. The song is about needing to change internally, and hooking up with someone who is a … Read more

‘About to explode’ is the final song from Forensics to receive a lyric video. Shot and edited by Joona Nuutinen. Still frames from the lyric video, without the lyrics.
Dalziel’s remix of Crazy talk will be released on June 10th!
‘Never leave the shipyard’ is Unzyme’s most acoustic, and one of the saddest songs in the catalogue. Joona made a lyric video out of video clips from his adventures during the covid years. Stills from the video.
2021 was not an easy year. It was a year of necessary endings and brave new beginnings. We had to say farewell to Unzyme’s long-time drummer, the magnificent beatmaster, lord of the nanoworld, Ville Hoikkala, because he wanted to fully commit to his academic career. The decision was not made lightly, but once it was … Read more
Unzyme’s original drummer, Ville Hoikkala, has stepped away from his beat-handling duties to be able to fully concentrate on his academic career. This is mostly due to both parties wanting to accelerate, but to opposite directions. Unzyme’s demands have been growing a lot lately, and this felt like the right time to face reality and … Read more
A new lyric video has been released for Supreme abilities. The footage in the video was shot by Joona while visiting more or less abandoned places somewhere in Finland. Two more songs from Forensics will get lyric videos, after which we move on to unreleased songs.
We’ve been working hard on the next Unzyme album. The work was started well before our previous album, Forensics, was released. This new chapter will deal with big themes like identity, courage, addiction, depression, friendship and transformation. There will be at least one scifi song, as is customary (we’re secretly building a scifi album on … Read more
Unzyme will play a very special show at Jyväskylä Pride 2021, which takes place in the legendary Lounaispuisto. The event starts at 14:00 and ends at 18:00. We don’t know the exact showtime yet, but our show will likely be the last. Unzyme producers Lasse and Henna will also bring their spectacular Pihka Is My … Read more
A few years ago, Joona set out to write an album that would study life choices, and how they may be hard to rationalize. ‘Forensics’ is a compilation of stories about digging into your own past, trying to understand what really happened and why. Sometimes there are clues that were left unnoticed at the time. … Read more
