Numento

Finnish modern melodic death band Numento released the last single Opilion from their upcoming third album The Antimatter Fantasy. The song comes with a stunning hand-crafted animated music video. Aggressive and saturated with addictive melodies, Opilion tells a story about a person caught in the web of deceit, carefully crafted by a spider-like predator. True to Numento‘s style, the song combines strong contrasts of rage and aggressiveness with a delicate ethereality that seamlessly complement each other. Even before its release, Opilion has become a crowd favorite at concerts and has established itself in Numento‘s live set.

However, a few month ago, at the end of March, the band released the second single, Timetrap, from the upcoming album. The snappy and groovy track once again showcases Numento‘s distinctive style. Also, it balances brutality and ethereal elements with a variety of vocal styles. The song, combining aggressive blast beats and mischievous melodies, is inspired by sci-fi stories, telling of different dimensions of time. At the heart of the story there is also the fact that we cannot escape the truth or our destiny, which we shape daily through our own actions and choices.

Biography:

Founded originally in 2004, Numento is a modern melodic death metal band from Helsinki. Their music combines extreme metal styles with a phenomenal and versatile female voice, ranging from operatic heights to deep growls. The band has released two albums so far, The Cataclysm (2019) and The Vile Entity (2022). Moreover, the third album is going to come out this summer.

Numento always leaves the audience in awe with their aggressive sound, ethereal atmosphere and an energetic live show. The versatile songs are adorned with the eerie sound of the Finnish national instrument, kantele. One of their most important achievements is winning the toughest metal band competition in Finland, Tuska-Torstai in 2022.  This resulted in playing at the main Tuska festival in the same year. In addition, they have warmed up the stage for Aephanemer and Smackbound at On the Rocks Helsinki.

Lineup:

Atte Asikainen – guitar & backing vocals
Katri Hiovain-Asikainen – vocals & kantele
Simo Mattila – bass
Aleksi Vehmassalo – guitar
Mikko Virtanen – drums
