A SUR THING

Published:

“Surcease” is the first single taken from Molokens fourth album “Unveilance of Dark Matter”, set for release the 31st of January 2020. Released with a music video, the single is one of the shortest and most direct songs of the upcoming album, combining uncompromising modern hardcore influenced metal with overloads of melodies and despair. You can hear that Moloken is from Umeå, Sweden – there are a lot of influences from acts as Meshuggah, Cult of Luna and Refused.

The year of the skullsÖ

The year of raptureÖ

The year of changesÖ

The year of sacrifice…î

Since the dawn of time music has been a part of human history and itís the only language that has transcended every age. Of the few fortunate that channel one of humanities oldest forms of expression is the aging colossus Moloken. Born in the bitter cold of Ume in 2007 the band has walked their own path disregarding musical conventions and genres. To change, morph and evolve restlessly is in the very fabric of Moloken and the titan above us is still on a journey into the unknown. Music is their religion and it unleashes feelings that are only understood by the heart of those who listen.

Throughout the last 12 years the band has been fusing together influences from Death/Doom/Black Metal along with 70’s progressive rock and Hardcore. The result is a unique blend of dark, moody and menacing music that manages to be both cerebral and crushingly heavy. The goal of the band has always been to create something of their own while acknowledging that they are standing on the shoulders of giants: ìBurn what we worshipped and worship what we burnedî.

Once you’ve heard Moloken, it’s hard to wash it out of your clothes. It stains, like coffee or blood.
