Taken from the forthcoming album "Tulijoutsen", out on Svart Records, Feb 28th 2014. 

The highly acclaimed Finnish death doomsters return with their most ambitious work to date. Produced once again by the Triptykon and Dark Fortress guitarist V. Santura, Kuolemanlaakso’s sophomore album “Tulijoutsen” (“The Fire Swan”) explores unconquered grounds of heaviness, and pushes the band onto a new level of melancholy.

“Tulijoutsen” will be released as a limited digipak CD with an exclusive bonus track “Raadot raunioilla”, digital download and two different limited vinyl editions: red (150 copies) and black (350 copies).

Lyrics:

I like the way that you cut it, oh baby tonight I see you, I can own you.
While she sleeps I'm running back over to you to get a dose, a measure of life, scars, simple pain.
Scratch my back again.
I keep it inside this heart that wants to break and become more than just love.
Tender silence, open arms, blinded romance, bound souls.
Maybe I do, maybe I will.
I will be you and you can be me and we can wear each other, but who am I?

Lyrics:

Get out
Rage has nowhere to go now
Yea
I’m feeling
More and more like I’m not dreaming,
It’s time.
So it was, 
Now it will be,
It’s time to torture this world
I’ll never return
From wandering away this far
And again 
My altered mind has something to say
On my own two feet I will stand
Time to leave, and again
Time
Time to go to my drawer
Get that knife for you
When I find peace of mind 
We will see some blood
Oh yea.
It’s over
It is over
Someone is dying in a hole
Too broken 
Trying to yell out to me
I love the sound of it
I love what I see
Love
It

Lyrics:

This is what I live
This is it
Finishing the painting today
Meeting tomorrow
Leave that memo on the fridge the time will come to pay the bill.
I look forward to tonight
For once, quiet house to be with my thoughts.
Oh, so this is it
It gets no better
Spend some time looking at the fresh new wall
I love you,
Hunny bunny
When I hold you in my arms it’s like
Paper mache faces, toys and screaming kids
Seem ok.
And they are, 
Because that’s what we’re to think,
Right?
And I am starting 
To think to myself
