NEWS: Omnium Gatherum head back to the start…

Finnish melodic death metal masters Omnium Gatherum have presented us with their new single “Paragon” and announced a new album called “Origin” that will mark the recording debut of bassist Mikko Kivistö who joined the group in 2020 as their sixth member in that position. Set for 5th November 2021 via Century Media, the record will be followed by a European Mainland tour to take them until the end of 2021…

Vocalist Jukka Pelkonen states: “Basically Paragon is about overcoming obstacles and hard situations. Anything that comes to the way may be intense and malign, but it will not shatter the diamond of resolve, that is the paragon!”

Guitarist and clean vocalist Markus Vanhala continues: ”…that leads us to the near past times of the band. Not only some virus but also weird lineup changes made our last year really difficult. But Finnish perseverance means that hard times and crisis are made to take on as a challenge, overcome them and refine yourself better. So here we are, back on track stronger than ever! That’s why there’s a minimum amount of Finnish melancholy & darkness, but maximum amount of awesomeness & good times in this video. Never surrender!”
