Die finnische Death-Metal-Band Hautajaisyö veröffentlicht ihr fünftes Album „Surun paino“ am 20. März 2026 über Inverse Records. Die erste Single „Maan nielemä“ ist ab heute erhältlich, zusammen mit einem Musikvideo, das hier verfügbar ist.The first single from the new Hautajaisyö album, Surun Paino (Weight of Sorrow), comes with brutality. 'Maan Nielemä' (Swallowed by Dirt) showcases the band at their best. It features heavy riffs, violent drums and low-growl vocals. The song is inspired by the year 536, the "Year of Darkness", when the world was shrouded in darkness and nearly all of humanity perished. Amidst the chaos, a lone gravedigger toils endlessly. The song has a DIY music video which was filmed in one take at the band's practice venue. This fits well, as the album was recorded by the band themselves using their own equipment.
'Maan Nielemä' is one of my favourite songs from the new album. It hits like a hammer on hot metal, and you can feel the darkness of the song. Making the video was damn fun. We had a rough idea of what we wanted to do, and we tried to keep the costs down. Then we just 'hit our heads against the wall' until we had the finished video." says vocalist Janne Partanen
