The Finnish band return with for grandiose forth chapter to bask in.
On February 28th, Havukruunu will release their new album, Tavastland, via Svart Records, continuing their reign throughout the black metal underground. Following up 2020's Uinuos Syömein Sota will be a challenging feat, but if the lead single/title track is anything to go off of, we're in for a moving experience.
Guitarist Stefa comments on the album’s theme:
“Tavastland tells how in 1237 the Tavastians rose in a rebellion against the church of Christ and drove the popes naked into the frost to die. Tavastland reveals our fathers’ centuries old sins and lies of consolation. Tavastland speaks of him, who has become a prisoner of his home, alienated from the land of the forest and is now afraid of the dark with all lights on, surrounded by his smart devices. Tavastland tells about the freedom we lost. Tavastland haunts its listener to the grave, and I will personally open that grave one bleak night and steal the fading light of your sempiternal soul.”
