Finnish progressive death metal band Sargassus is set to release their debut album »Vitruvian Rays«, out on June 13th 2025 via Inverse Records. The third and last single »Pahat Veräjät« is unleashed today and it’s available on all essential streaming services!
The new single »Pahat Veräjät« showcases Sargassus’s versatile and unique blackened sound.
The band comments: “»Pahat Veräjät« is the third and final single before the release of the »Vitruvian Rays« album. The song is both a departure from the band’s usual modus operandi, as it is sung in Finnish, as well as a return to the roots, featuring long atmospheric passages with progressive chord structures. As the song kicks off with ultra-fast blast beats, there is a definite nod towards extreme metal as well. »Pahat Veräjät« (‘The Bad Gates’ in English) references the gates of Tuonela, the cold underworld of Finnish mythology. It tells the story of a journey through the wilderness between the living and the dead, asking the listener if a life’s worth can (or should) be measured in wealth, as all material possession will eventually be left behind.”
