Kalmah - Releases New Single And Lyric Video


Swamp lords Kalmah are back! Today, they released a new single called "The Evil Kin", accompanied by a lyric video, taken from their upcoming album, Palo. Listen to it now! Palo will hit stores on April 6th via Spinefarm Records with cover art by Niklas Sundin. Are you excited for the new Kalmah album?

Antti Kokko states: "Almost 30 years of swamp madness and here we are today representing our 8th album with fishing tridents sharpened shiny. The album stands strongly on the very roots of Kalmah sound yet introduces fresh breath from the Swamplord's tar-stained lungs. Evil Kin as first single gives you riffs written back in 1991 blended with melodies of Kalmah today. It's a perfect statement to show where we were and are right now."







Tracklist:
01. Blood Ran Cold
02. The Evil Kin
03. The World Of Rage
04. Into the Black Marsh
05. Take Me Away
06. Paystreak
07. Waiting in the Wings

The beginning failed to pull me in, but when the first chorus hit I was excited. Classic Kalmah sound. The key change at the end is a nice touch. Pretty stoked for this album.

I know what you mean, I really didn't like the intro, but the song gets way better as it progresses, and most importantly it feels like a Kalmah song

Not a great fan of their lyrics but the music is just Kalmahish. Beautiful.

In the beginning I was made of clay. Then I bit the apple and they changed me to metal 🤘

Exactly. I was worried at first that the whole song was going to be like that, but when I heard that guitar lead in the chorus, I knew everything was alright. Haha.

Well...I love Swampsters to be honest. I am waiting for the new album since they announced it. This song...isn't for me. Everyone here is praisng the chorus, but for me the whole song is boring and generic. I won't mention the intro, which is too simple. Chorus is kinda catchy, but...that's all. It's nice but have no 'I got you!'. Disappointed :<

song was ok....too much generic- borrowing-from - gothernburg stuff. Needs more old school wisdom of Kalmah

Liked the song, especially the chorus, classic Kalmah, as for the lyrics, they were not so good but in my opinion no Kalmah lyrics are really great, i think it comes down to that they're not completely fluent in English.

Finally, they return again with a new album after 5 years. Hopefully worth the waits, and we will get an another melodic death metal masterpiece from these Finnish Swamplords!

This new song is also very good and promising!

Found it to be a good effort, but hopefully the album has much better. Also felt at times that the sound production wasn't great, like in the chorus the guitars in the background are way too muzzled.

On a side note, I have been playing way too much Bloodborne, I immediately thought about it when i read the song title

"Evil Kin as first single gives you riffs written back in 1991"
Their stuff from ancestors are a far cry from what they sound today, Those demos were epic This must be a trashed riff even from that era.

Never heard of them, kinda sound like if Sentenced played generic death metal. Actually better than I expected.

Back with a vengeance! Song sounds better than a lot of Seventh Swamphony in my opinion. Will be looking forward to this one!
