Formed in early 2019, this Finnish Symphonic Doom Metal band INFIRMUM has approached the genre in a unique and complex way.
With a sound that explores aspects of classical music combined with the traditional weight and melancholy of Doom, they released their debut album ‘Walls of Sorrow’ in 2020, followed by the EP ‘The Great Unknown’ in 2022.
In January 2023, they released the single ‘Sleep of Reason’, which featured a music video.
With the departure of vocalist Anna Rose in 2023, Brazilian singer Sabine Blodwin joined the band, bringing a new perspective from a different culture.

Sabine:
“‘Burn’ is about everything that is controversial and burns inside the human soul, what we feel in secret, what people try to hide or extinguish to fit into society. In ‘Burn’, while the male part exposes these feelings and unique visions of the world around, the female part represents the embracing of all these demons, the darkness as part of the human being, and this dark flame grows until it finally becomes one with the individual.”
Timo:
“‘Burn’ was fun to compose. Wanted to compose a bit faster song and I was in right mood so this turned out to be really good. It is always fantastic to notice how song evolves after I have sent just my guitar tracks and everyone begin to create their parts. Sometimes I delete some guitar leads so other instruments have more space. I am very happy with the results!”
Eliel:
“‘Burn’ was me trying to be more brutal than on other songs, very death metal lyrics.”
Hanna-Leena:
“When I first started to work on the drum parts for ‘Burn’, the demo had only Timo’s guitar tracks. But I could immediately hear that this song will be more aggressive and it needs to have a sense of danger. That’s what I aimed for with my drumming: danger alerting accents, tickling our primitive lizard brain with a sense of something bad looming around the corner, short machine gun like bursts of rhythm in kick drums etc. But also I wanted to keep our signature ‘beauty and the beast’ dynamic present in the song, so I made some parts to have a more ‘flowy’ feel for a nice contrast.”
INFIRMUM’s music today can be described as profound and conflicted, exploring the darkest sides of human emotions, diving into the depths of madness, pain, sickness, and death, while still finding brief moments of hope, offering an atmospheric journey through the darkest corners of the human soul.
Combining beauty and ferocity, their compositions are rich in textures and nuances with strong, reflective lyrics.

Melodic doom/death metal band Infirmum has released new single ‘Sleep of Reason’.
The band was formed early 2019 and they have released the full album ‘Walls of Sorrow’ 2020 and the EP ‘The Great Unknown’ 2022.
Melancholic, dark, gloomy, full of emotions.
These words would describe their atmospheric journey with beauty and the beast through the darkness.
Vocalist Anna Rose backgrounds the song:
“This is a song that started taking its first shape a few years ago, before I even joined Infirmum. It is a song born of frustration, meant to express the despair of existing in an ever more uncertain world. While it is a salve, a way to vent all those feelings, it is also a herald of our doom. If I ever wrote an actual funeral dirge, this is it!”
Guitar player Timo Solonen continues:
“As soon as Anna joined Infirmum in the summer 2020, she told she had lyrics ready for a song called Sleep of Reason. She also had vocal melodies ready for the chorus. I did my best to compose whole song around the chorus’s vocal melodies and get the atmosphere to be right for the song based on the lyrics. I think results are quite good but wasn’t easy I have to say. Teemu Mastovaara did arrangements for the cello and perfect job he did. Also Erna’s keyboards, Hanska’s drums, Joonas’s guitars and bass are excellent. Eliel’s growls works perfectly. And Anna? Well, you really have to love her voice. This is end of an era.”
