Finnish doom metal musician Harri Kauppinen introduces his new post-metal project Abandoned Ocean

Abandoned Ocean is a new project that introduces the English written material by Finnish post metal / doom metal artist Harri Kauppinen. Now released debut release Inner Dusk -EP could be described as post-metal. Kauppinen once again combines elements of lo-fi and doom into his intimate singer-songwriter style.

“The last time my music was released was in 2016. After a long break, it’s great to see that I still get excited when a whole (and damn dark) song is built out of total emptiness. It’s one of the greatest experiences music offers me.” -Harri Kauppinen

Although the EP’s music was written by Harri Kauppinen, there’s also other players involved: Teemu Liekkala (Rioghan, Red Eleven), Otto Närhi (Psychework, Nestruction) and producer Hiili Hiilesmaa (Kypck, Swallow the Sun, HIM).

These four gentlemen last came together on a unifying theme in 2016, when Kauppinen’s debut solo album, Helvetin laulut, was released. Not forgetting the fact that Kauppinen, Liekkala and Närhi share a common history from 2005-2014, when they were part of the dark metal band Beyond The Dream.

Inner Dusk is a narrow passageway into a gloomy world, but one where there is hope for a way out. Step inside. You can come back if you want, but before you do ; close your eyes and immerse yourself in the inner dusk.
