Second single Abattoir (Chosen) out now – Khroma ups the heaviness on the forthcoming album

Abattoir (Chosen), the second single taken from the upcoming Khroma album, due out in October 2025, presents the band with a renewed yet familiar sound: cinematic soundscapes, apocalyptic samples, down-tuned grooves and heavier-than-hell guitars meet with lead vocalist Riku Rinta-Seppälä‘s fatalistic lyrics, which he interprets through rapping, toasting and growling. We all wait for the abattoir and soundtrack to the slaughter is Khroma.

Formed in 2010, Khroma has released three albums and toured Europe more than 10 times. The band’s fourth self-titled album will be released in October 2025.

KHROMA RELEASES THEIR FOURTH ALBUM IN AUTUMN – FIRST SINGLE “CATCH THE WHIP” OUT NOW

Catch The Whip, Khroma‘s first single from their fourth album to be released in October 2025 showcases a renewed side to the Helsinki-based alternative/electro-metal band’s sound. Hip hop and drum’n bass influences have been brought to the surface, and electro elements have been added to give a 2020s feel.

Khroma’s sound of low-pitched grooves, cinematic machine elements and vocal performances from soloist Riku Rinta-Seppälä‘s whispering to screaming is still recognisable, but Catch The Whip twists the single knobs with its catchiness.

Formed in 2010, Khroma has released three albums and toured Europe more than 10 times. The band’s fourth self-titled album will be released in October 2025.

Split Iris, Balance Breach & Khroma live at Meara Klubi Vol.18, Pori (Fin)

This time on the stage of Meara Klubi played Split Iris, Balance Breach and Khroma. Split Iris is a progressive metalcore band that combines elements of djent, deathcore and many other sub-styles of modern metal. Balance Breach is one of the most promising metal bands from Finland, its music combines wistful melodies, furious energy and big choruses in such an irresistible way that it has been noticed not only in Finland but also in Central Europe. Combining low-key groove, electro, hip hop and ambient, Khroma has done several foreign tours since its founding in 2010, the most recent being a massive 37-gig European tour with the Jinjer in autumn 2019, as well as a 10-gig club tour in the fall of 2022, with the crowning gig at Cologne’s Euroblast festivals in October 2022. Khroma has also warmed up for the band Gojira, performed in addition to the 2013 Tuska Festival at several festivals in Central Europe and visited Japan for a showcase gig.
