It’s been freezing cold here in Helsinki lately, and what better occasion than this to bring together two strikingly different bands, each embodying, in their own way, how winter and Finnishness can serve as rich sources of inspiration? Folk/black metal one-woman project VERMILIA and doom/death veterans SWALLOW THE SUN joined forces for a pair of gigs, one of which took place at Tavastia, Helsinki, on February 6th, 2026.
