Finnish melodic metal band Ikirouta has released a new song ‘Uusi päivä‘ (A New Day).
This is the 19th single by this Kajaani-based band.
On this tight song the band cut to the chase immediately and the first chorus strikes in after half a minute.
Guitarist and composer Teemu Kuosmanen tells about the song:
“‘Uusi päivä’ is something quite different from our band but it still got the familiar Ikirouta-sound. We wanted to try some new stuff and we used some synth-bass, electric drum fills and mixed in a little bit of disco metal twist. Really big thanks to Janne Tolsa about the soundscape. Especially on the chorus got some traditional Finnish pop touch. And the length – I have never before written a song this short. It’s actually quite a challenge to push all the important elements into a three minute song. We are really excited to see how people will react to this!”
Ikirouta is a hard working live band playing constantly all around Finland.
The band is also active organizing popular Facebook – live streams from their rehearsals that have had over 10.000 viewers on most popular streams.
