The Finnish techno metal act Turmion Kätilöt decided that no matter what, their 9th album will come out as planned – and now is the time. "Global Warning" has been released today through Nuclear Blast and is available on all streaming services as well as in CD and LP formats.
The members of Turmion Kätilöt are very pleased with "Global Warning".
"This is a dangerous album. F*cking great. We've created a snake that will slither its way into the souls of many", MC Raaka-Pee ponders.
"This is the prize we've all been waiting for. I can't wait to perform this to our fans. This album sounds exactly like we wanted it to – no compromises were made", Shag-U adds.
The album release would not be complete without one last single – which is definitely the most outrageous one of them all.
"'Naitu' is like your life on camera. Nothing censored. Nothing fake. Just pure, naked and raw animal-like lust and passion that we all think and feel, yet try to deny. This song is about that delicious 'something' that makes your horny body dance", Shag-U explains.
"Is there somebody here who wants pretty, polished pictures? We think all people deserve the truth", MC Raaka-Pee adds.
As can be gathered from the band members' comments, "Naitu" is a perverted track, and it comes with an equally twisted video – watch at your own risk here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltsVs2_HIBc
"The band told me they want to attract a new audience and the video should reflect that. I figured the most potential new crowd could be found in kids, so we put some animal characters and funny events in this video. Isn't that what they like? Right?" says Rauli Ylitalo, the director of the video.
The Finnish tour of Turmion Kätilöt has been postponed until next autumn, and their concert in the Helsinki Ice Hall will take place on the 19th of September. The band is very sympathetic to why everything had to be cancelled or postponed – after all, they were just about to give a global warning of their own.
"It's not the end of the world, but you can see it from here… Even though it's unfortunate that the gigs had to be postponed, our warning is global. No disease can stop it, and the warning doesn't grow old. We will come when the world is ready, and clearly it isn't just yet. It's ok. We can wait", Shag-U says.
"I'm glad about the restrictions. I'm one of the people who are at increased risk, so I wouldn't even want to be performing in a big event during times like these. We will all come together again when it's safe. Sure, this will all cost a lot of money, but if somebody thinks it's too much, I'd really like to hear what's the price for a human life", MC Raaka-Pee concludes.
All new tour dates can be found on the Turmion Kätilöt webpage. While waiting for the gigs, the band will have a Q&A session along with Shag-U's infernal make-up tutorial on Saturday, the 25th of April, on the band's YouTube channel.
