Kaunis Kuolematon release new album and video for “Rauniot”

With “Kun Valo Minussa Kuoli”, Finland’s masters of melancholy, Kaunis Kuolematon, unveil their most immersive and emotionally charged work to date. Out now via Noble Demon, the band’s fifth studio album captures Kaunis Kuolematon at a moment of artistic clarity – tragic, furious, vulnerable, and breathtakingly beautiful.

The previously released singles “Merta” and “Maailman Ainut Ihminen” already hinted at an album shaped by contrasts: bleak heaviness set against moments of fragile introspection, sweeping melodic lines wrapped in crushing sonic weight. Across the full record, this duality becomes even more pronounced. Kaunis Kuolematon stay true to the emotional core that has defined them since 2012, yet push their dynamics, atmosphere, and expressive depth further than ever before.

For a perfect insight into the emotional heart of the record, listen to “Rauniot” – a track the band characterizes with the following words: “‘Rauniot’ is a track about inspecting life from the outside and applying subjective process for silently letting go and liberating self by acceptance. Should we be overwhelmed by the quiet decay and all the misery that everybody bear, or be free from suffocating hecticness bearing in mind the final frontier we all need to go through – death?”

Since their formation, Kaunis Kuolematon has steadily built a unique soundscape that resonates far beyond genre borders. Blending crushing heaviness with emotional depth, the band has become a powerful voice in Finland’s metal scene — and with this new record, they continue to refine their distinct blend of melancholy and intensity.

Hailing from Hamina, the band has maintained its original lineup from the very beginning – a rarity in today’s music world. Their previous albums, “Kylmä kaunis maailma” (2014), “Vapaus” (2017),”Syttyköön toinen aurinko” (2020), and “Mielenvalta” (2023), each reflect a moment in time – evolving yet always consistent in vision.

While often associated with doom and death metal, Kaunis Kuolematon’s identity goes beyond genre labels. Their outlook remains fundamentally positive and forward-looking. The success of “Mielenvalta” (2023, Noble Demon) – which reached #6 on the official Finnish physical album charts – along with sold-out club shows and strong festival appearances, shows how the band’s persistence and sincerity have resonated with fans.

Now, with “Kun Valo Minussa Kuoli” finally released, Kaunis Kuolematon once again immerse listeners in a world where melancholy reigns – and every note tells a story of beauty within darkness.
