Finnish Phoboian releases their second single “The Fall”. We return to the heavy beauty of operatic metal and grim themes. The apocalyptic disease of “The Plague” is followed by depictions of ecological catastrophe. The band is preparing for their upcoming album in addition to shows.

Guitar player Otso Turunen tells about the song: “”The Fall’ means the autumn of humanity. After releasing a billion years worth of carbon deposits as plastic and greenhouse gases it’s a good time to check out. Only time will tell how things actually turn out. Either way the message of the song is that future generations or evolutions will remember us at least from this monument the size of an asteroid impact.”
Singer Inka Laitinen continues: “The song has a beautiful melody that allows me to use a wider vocal range, making the singing interesting. I really like the atmosphere of the song, which is melancholic and hints at destruction, but in my opinion, the melody still carries a sense of hope.”
Phoboian is a melodic death metal orchestra from Turku, Finland. The band’s music incorporates classical female vocals into heavy nordic melancholy. Phoboian was established in 2017 during an after party to a metal gig, and since has gathered six musicians to its ranks: singers Inka Laitinen and Eeva Korhonen, drummer Kristo Rautavuori, bassist Jonathan Åkerman, and guitarists Olli Kuure and Otso Turunen.
