Finnish metal band Havukruunu is set to return with their highly anticipated full-length album Tavastland, scheduled for release on February 28, 2025, via Svart Records. After three acclaimed albums, the band has perfected their ominous sound, melding sorrowful guitar riffs, thunderous drums, and an evocative, otherworldly atmosphere.
Tavastland delivers an intense auditory experience, with Stefa and Bootleg-Henkka’s guitars casting dark, threatening shadows, while Kostajainen’s drum work pulses with the relentless energy of a dying fire. Humö’s bass rumbles like the cold wind battering an abandoned house, adding to the album’s haunting atmosphere. Stefa’s commanding vocals roar and channel messages from realms unknown, with a choir backing him, creating a sense of foreboding power.
The album evokes imagery of a collapsing world and the rise of something darkly transcendental. It captures the essence of Havukruunu’s rebellious spirit, embodying freedom and oblivion in its most intense form. As the band describes, Tavastland is a call to those ready to embrace the end of the old world and the beginning of the new, chaotic era: “Fly, You Fools!”
