”…it’s hard to preach with yer head on a pike”

Finnish black metal -group Mourniaty takes the listener on a journey to an era, when Christianity’s seeds would not take root in a frosted ground. Instead of faith you would only find cold steel and death.
 

”Kyynelten virta” (Stream of Tears) is the debut single from Mourniaty’s forthcoming debut-album ”Musta maa” (Black Earth). The albums contains more Anti-Christian stories sung both in English and Finnish. Album will be released globally by Inverse Records. You better brace yourself.
 

BIOGRAPHY:
When you get fed up with Christianity and Paganism starts to arouse your interest, interesting things are often created. Sometimes this process needs an accelerant, which is exactly what happened when Karulainen and Metällinen found themselves to be merged in the same family tree. Now, what else would fresh, Finnish relatives do but make aggressive noises together? This gave an outlet for the music Karulainen had already been writing. 

Finnish Mourniaty began its life as a smoldering project already in 2015. It burst into raging fire five years later, when situations in life permitted concentrating on music full-time. When bass player Tenho joined the group in 2022, Mourniaty finally became a real band instead of two men with backing tracks. 

Karulainen describes Mourniaty’s music as black metal, which combines mid-tempo grooves and even symphonic arrangements combined with lyrics sung in both Finnish and English, which revolve around themes of Paganism and Anti-Christianity. The debut album, “Musta maa” (Black Earth), will be released thru Inverse records on digital platforms and in cd-format in November of 2025. What a perfect soundtrack for the darkest season of the year.
