A new chill wind is coming from the Finnish forests! The black/folk metal band Kouta has revealed some details about its debut EP Aarnihauta, set for release on 11 March. The three-track and 12 minutes long EP got inspired by the old Nordic lore and myths, combined with the malign nature of the northern forests and the iniquity of being human. The myth of the malevolent being Kouta is at the heart of the group's music.
Aarnihauta combines black and folk metal, bringing forth the dark and hopeless atmosphere of Nordic nature. Thematically the EP focuses on the appearance of the mythological being Kouta, whose malevolence brings judgment and despair upon the treacherous mankind. Fans of Behemoth, ...And Oceans, Anaal Nathrakh, Lorna Shore, Paara, Finntroll and Wardruna will most likely be excited about the EP, which will soon be available digitally. Meanwhile, the video for the track "Maanviha" is available in the player below. Link
