Press Release: Crimson Gallows (FI) unveils new single »Halla« ahead of sophomore album

Helsinki-based melancholic metal project Crimson Gallows has released a brand-new track titled »Halla« today, November 13. The song serves as the first single off the upcoming sophomore full-length album, »Tied To Our Undoing«, slated for release in February 2027.

Founded in 2023, Crimson Gallows is the personal project of multi-instrumentalist Arvid Kuura, blending melancholic metal with heavy doom influences and a dark, gothic atmosphere.

On the new single, the harshness of Finnish nature intertwines with the fading of a human relationship. The title »Halla« (a Finnish word for a damaging night frost) acts as a powerful metaphor: just as autumn frost freezes the ground and suffocates all life beneath it, love is growing cold and heading toward its inevitable end. And while spring will eventually thaw the frozen earth back to life, the love in this story has become too fragile – it may no longer survive the winter.

“Atmospherically, »Halla« fits the darkening autumn and the cold evenings of approaching winter perfectly. Composition-wise, I believe the track is fairly accessible and offers a great taste of what’s to come on the new album this winter,” Kuura comments.

An atmospheric lyric video for the single has also been released and is available to watch on the band’s official YouTube channel.
