This is already the fifth album in the saga delivered to us by Ruoja. From the darker recesses of the human mind explored, excavated and brought to light are things that most will never dare to face. But some have the will, courage or pressing urge to do so. These findings, conclusions and questions are dressed in musical form. These forms are songs in this case – the songs of Ajattara. It is nearly impossible to discuss this band in pure musical terms, as there is so much more to this. But let’s try. There has been a new step in the evolution of Ajattara, and “Kalmisto” differs clearly from its predecessors. In essence the band still remains the same, the familiar sound and the dark, haunting and unnerving atmospheres are present also on this release. The aural debaucheries and illuminating lectures caught on tape offer a fantastic journey through vivid impressions and different landscapes. And who knows, maybe even in oneself. Mate, feed, die, repeat. The cycle of life of earth’s finest specimen? Pretty pathetic. Man is the only creature of the animal kingdom that has the possibility to evolve to higher levels. If they choose not to, they remain exactly like the rest of the breed, animals. And the gnawing feeling inside man, the yearning, the unquenched thirst? It is not quenched by drink, food or other primitive reactions misunderstood by the savage man. Listen. Ajattara is the wake-up call for those are ready to awaken. To understand. Maybe now for the first time you comprehend, and the painful ignorance eases for a while. Most of humanity is in deep slumber. Lulled by its ignorance and negligence in things that really matter. And there are forces that wish to keep things this way. To keep mankind subdued by maya, the illusion. But some are awake. Some resist. Something stirs within you? This is your window of opportunity! Act now while you still see clearly – before you forget. Join the small group of daring pioneers at the frontiers with Ruoja Suruntuoja as their marshal. Wake up! Tracklist: 01.
