Kuopio-based progressive metal newcomer Heaven-Gemini has released a new single. “Tinnitus” is available on all streaming services. The music video released alongside the song sheds light on the story of the upcoming album.
“Tinnitus is an auditory perception that is not caused by an external sound source. Therefore, tinnitus is an internal sound. And the internal sound doesn’t always speak kindly; sometimes it screams,”
explains the song’s composer and lyricist Aleksi Kokko.
“With its appealing rhythms and straightforward transitions, Tinnitus is simply beautiful,”
summarizes guitarist Mikko Soininen.
The song progresses with intricate rhythms, while also being one of the band’s more catchier tracks. On the album, tinnitus represents the voice of conscience echoing through time and space.
“Tinnitus keeps on ringing in your head and ears. Protect your hearing, cherish your head, enjoy the song,”
says drummer Santtu Paananen.
The music video continues the series started with “Pathomania”. The saga is approaching its end, but more is yet to come, the band hints.
“Luonnonoikku” album will be released through Inverse Records in the fall of 2024. The album has been mixed by Seppo Nummela and mastered by Joni Borodavkin. The cover art is by Jussi Huttunen.
