Finnish purveyors of atmospheric heaviness Harms have signed with Time To Kill Records to release their upcoming sophomore full-length, Rebirth Of The Cold, with further details to be unveiled in the coming months.
With Rebirth Of The Cold, Harms move deeper into darkness: heavier, more melodic, and more aggressive than before. The music feels colder and more intense, built around tension and collapse, where moments of bleak beauty are sharpened, and the weight of the band's sound hits harder than ever. At times, their approach can be seen as an ingenious fusion of post-metal expansiveness, blackened contours, and a fierce metallic hardcore edge, shaping a sound that is both emotionally immersive and physically punishing. Lyrically, the album continues their exploration of meaninglessness, emptiness, and decay, colored by reflections on time, space, and mortality: a meditation in grief, stripped of comfort and illusion, searching for what remains when nothing holds meaning.
Formed in 2017 in Lappeenranta, Finland, Harms have forged a distinctive identity rooted in crushing heaviness, atmospheric darkness, and raw emotional intensity. Drawing inspiration from the endless cold and shadow of the north, the five-piece crafts sonic landscapes that shift between overwhelming force and desolate, melodic beauty.
Their debut album, A Lifetime Spent On Dying (2021), was met with strong critical acclaim, and now, with Time To Kill Records backing their next chapter, Harms are poised to push their sound further into inevitable ruin, delivering their most immersive and uncompromising work to date with Rebirth Of The Cold. Further information on the release will be revealed soon. Link
