Finnish Extreme Metal band i HELVETE has released its new album “Yksi Yhteinen Yhteiskunta” through Inverse Records. To celebrate the release the band dropped an official lyric video for the album’s title track. The video announces the concept album’s agenda: modern society has come to the end of the road, it’s time for the winds of change and everyone can’t survive it.
Singer-guitarist Aleksi Mäkelä, comments on the new album: “For our second album, we wanted a sound as authentic as possible. In the recordings, we tried to find a complete package for the sounds and effects, so there would be no need to do, for example, reamping. In addition, the violin, accordion and piano tracks were recorded with the help of session musicians. Virtual instruments are therefore hardly heard on this record. These measures turned out to work correctly and the album has an authentic, raw and massive sound.”
Mäkelä adds on the new single: “ ‘Yksi Yhteinen Yhteiskunta’ is growing all the time. There will be more and more instruments and the tempo increases as it progresses further. This song doesn’t contain singing. It is a speech – or actually the manifesto of our movement.”
