Finnish metal newcomers, KOITOS, have released a third single, entitled “Virtaa” [flow], from their upcoming debut album. This song boasts more dynamics, as well as crushing riffs paired with delicate vocals and mellow piano lines.
“The upcoming album deals with loneliness from many different angles. But in this song, not in such a traditional way. The narrator of the song hides his mistakes under a hard shell, which emerges as crappy behavior towards others. In the end, people disappear around the narrator and he’s left to lick his wounds in solitude,” describes Matti Hiitti, regarding the song’s theme.
KOITOS‘ debut album will be released later in autumn. In addition to the composition and lyrics, the new single was recorded and produced entirely by the band itself. The song was mixed and mastered by Rami Nykänen, who has previously worked with bands like ONE MORNING LEFT and BALANCE BREACH.
