I wrote this song to a friend who struggles with depression. He sees a lot of things happening around him, but stays still, protecting himself from any outside influence. It’s rather easy to become a spectator in your own life, lacking the will or means to build anything, or to even feel anything. This song … Read more
Louder than the voice of reason, one of the songs from Unzyme’s fifth album is accompanied by a documentary film about the future of the prison system.

Unzyme’s long-time video collaborator Sebastian Trzaska raises the bar with his sixth music video for Unzyme.

Unzyme’s new music video, Springwater, has been released on January 12th, 2024. It’s a documentary video, shot in an old warship, under the unforgiving winds of the Baltic Sea.

A few years ago I met a very skilled musician at a songwriting camp. She wrote some very beautiful folk songs in Finnish.

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

Another music video collaboration between the magnificent Sebastian Trzaska and Unzyme – Escaping the mirror.

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
Directed, shot and edited by Sebastian Trzaska, the Shield music video is most probably our best music video so far. The fantastic industrial premises of Outokumpu Old Mine served the story well. Shield is also available on Spotify, but it should definitely be enjoyed with the video.
Recorded at the Unzyme Proving Ground, a new live version of Money grinder was released a few days ago on YouTube. If James Frank would be around, he would definitely enjoy this with a cup of coffee.
Forensics will be the successor to 2017’s extremely poppy album Transplant. We got tired of waiting for a better time, so the release date was set to May 7th, 2021.

There are no shortcuts. You need patience and empathy. What’s your definition of greatness? Don’t be afraid to change your life. Find your passion … Read more
We aren’t exactly known for doing cover songs. This is the first cover song to be released, after three albums of original material. It was surprisingly fun to work on this song, since it has quickly become a modern classic. There’s something very charming about this song. The Hoff has always stood for believing in … Read more
“Money grinder” is about dopamine-driven attention addiction, fueled by portraits of a perfect life in social media. It’s a critique on companies that give us dreams and monetize our attempts in gaining celebrity. We have all been behaviorally conditioned by the eternal content feed. The lyrics encourage you to to step away from the constant … Read more
