Finland’s extreme metallers Agarwaen have announced that they will embark on a European tour in September and October to promote “The Murder Trend,” the full-length recently released via Over The Border Records.
Agarwaen has stated about the upcoming tour:
”The gates of the criminal asylum are about to open once again. Expect brand-new songs, long-isolated classics returning to the stage, and a revamped show where even the old tricks have been twisted into something even more sinister.
Visiting hours begin this fall. Bring your friends and come see for yourselves! We’ll have the cotton candy and popcorn machines running hot, waiting for you!”
In order to give a foretaste of what you might expect on stage, Agarwaen has released a video for the song “Lobotomy,” played in January this year at Louhisali: https://tinyurl.com/yc8rx7as
The new album “The Murder Trend” is available as digipak CD on Bandcamp: https://tinyurl.com/jauus3tr
“The Murder Trend” deals with abuse, trauma, revenge, and inherited madness. Told as a chronological horror narrative, the album follows Anton, a boy broken by systemic cruelty, whose life spirals from neglect and violence into ritualized murder in a circus set and cult indoctrination. What begins as social tragedy evolves into something far more grotesque: a generational curse embodied through masks and a carnival of death. “The Murder Trend” moves between cinematic instrumentals, relentless extreme metal, crazy combinations of different styles, and theatrical passages that underline the story’s psychological collapse. It’s groovy, it’s progressive, violent as hell and yet brings a twisted smile on your face when you listen to it.
