Noumena Releases New Single and Music Video “Surunkehrä”

by | May 23, 2026

Finnish melodic death metal band Noumena has released a new single and music video titled “Surunkehrä.” The melancholic, mid-tempo track follows their previous single “Kuolemankello” and incorporates folk influences alongside shifting time signatures. Thematically, the song explores mythological concepts, focusing on a creature that spins human grief into thread to weave paths leading to the underworld. The accompanying music video visually expands on this lore, featuring vocalist Suvi Uura portraying the mythological Weaver of Sorrow.

Formed in Ähtäri, Finland in 1998, Noumena has spent over 25 years blending Scandinavian death metal traditions with atmospheric melodies. Across their six previous studio albums, the group has consistently built a sound rooted in heavy riffs and Nordic melancholy. The band has also established a strong international live presence, accumulating over 130 performances across Europe and Asia while sharing stages with acts like Insomnium, Moonsorrow, and Beast in Black.

“Surunkehrä” serves as the latest preview of Noumena’s upcoming seventh studio album. The full-length record is scheduled for release later this year in August. In the meantime, the new single and its accompanying music video are currently available to stream across all major digital platforms.

Being a feminist has been normalized as an irregularity through our patriarchal society, so I'd rather be called a "decent human" than a "feminist man". I breathe Metal and Rock and have a screwed-up sense of humour.
