Almost done with the writing process

Posted on April 26th 2007. Filed under general news.

Greetings! For a long time there has really been nothing to write about, but that’s about to change right now. Yes, countless hours at rehearsal room are really starting to pay off! Here’s an update on the next album: There will be eight brand new songs on it, totalling around 35-40 minutes and seven of these songs have already been completed. We’ll be spending our summer holidays in studio and the album should be out before the end of the year (at least in Finland). There will also be a single from the album, but that might be a Finland only release…

More details about the studio, releases and upcoming shows will be posted gradually during the spring and summer.

History

Sotajumala is a Finnish death metal band founded in 1998 that plays aggressive death metal. Drawing influence from both old and new generations of death metal the band has created a sound of their own. The lyrics are in their native language and the band name translates to Wargod. Over the years the band has gained loyal following through hard work, solid releases and several fierce live shows.

Debut full-length Death Metal Finland received great response from press and fans alike in 2004, marking the beginning of a new era in Finnish death metal. As a result of meticulous writing process the band unleashed their sophomore album Teloitus in 2007. With its eight crushing songs Teloitus displays Sotajumala’s progress as songwriters, as musicians and as a band - something both press and fans noticed. From start to finish Teloitus destroys everything on its path, not once letting go. This energy is also present at live shows where the band has further demonstrated their abilities to annihilate the masses.
