Finnish industrial metal band Fear of Domination released their seventh full-length album ‘Katharsis’ accompanied by a new music video for opening track “Alone.” Singer Saku Solin described the album as “the culmination of our entire band’s evolution and the rebirth of its members. It’s often said that art requires pain and faith, and this album truly contains both. The process tested us through adversity and demanding production, but perhaps because of that, I am now incredibly proud of us for having the strength to fight our way through it.” The 10-track album includes material from Lasse Raelahti’s pen, some of which had been waiting years to be born, while marking the band’s first full-length with Anton Nisonen and Jessica Salmi. Solin shared that “Feel may be the most beautiful song of my entire artist career. At least one of the most important ones for me.” Founded in 2006, Fear of Domination has toured around Europe with Deathstars, Turmion Kätilöt, Velcra, Shade Empire, Hanzel and Gretyl, Amaranthe, and PAIN.
The band kicks off their album release tour tomorrow in Espoo, Finland at Louhisali before hitting venues across the country through March. The limited CD digipak releases on January 23rd through Inverse Store and Bandcamp.
