“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
“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.

“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.

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.

Sometimes there are clues that were left unnoticed at the time. … Read more

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. We’re already busy writing, recording and producing the fifth album, so we gotta get this one out of the oven. One more single, Shield, will … Read more
