April 28th will see the release of "Det Österbottniska Mörkret", the brand new album by Finnish black metal legion Ondfødt.
Written in 2022, "Det Österbottniska Mörkret" is a bleak record, both
lyric and sound wise. Hailing from Ostrobothnia, an area in western
Finland with lots of urban legends and dark stories, this album is
exploring the darkest side of Ostrobothnia, both lyrically and
sonically.
"If you are from Ostrobothnia you will understand. The
endless darkness during winter when the sun is barely going above the
horizon. You will also understand the dark history of the witch hunt."
"Det
Österbottniska Mörkret" is about all of that and going even deeper to
the roots of all the evil spirits that lives in the area.
The album takes you through the dark history of murders and the darkest side of people driven by religion. And aswell the urban legends of the spirits and the evil creations that lives in the endless forsts of Ostrobothnia. And finally the album takes you through death itself with the song and first single "Dödsrejson".
