Finnish metalcore eccentrics ONE MORNING LEFT are finally back with a retro vengeance! The band officially launched the pre-orders for their brand-new album »Hyperactive«, which will be available on 21st of May in 2021, via Arising Empire.
Taking a completely different direction is new single 'Creatvres', a danceable rock song about unity and empowerment. Groovy drum beats, heavy guitars, and bright synths create a solid backdrop for the two vocalists to shine over. “A gem of modern music,” as remarked by bassist Miska Sipiläinen,
'Creatvres' is definitely the one of poppier tracks in the band’s catalogue. “Can’t wait to see which ice hockey team adopts this as their theme song!”, Keippilä adds.
»Hyperactive« tracklist:
01. Ruby Dragon
02. Neon Highway
03. Sinners Are Winners
04. Drowned God
05. CREATVRES
06. Live, Laugh, Love
07. Ruthless Resistance
08. Downfall
09. Worry Less, Dance More
10. Hyperactive
ONE MORNING LEFT’s fourth album marks their first new material in five years. On »Hyperactive« the group begins a whole new chapter in their story, drawing inspiration from retro electronic- and video game music, as well as 80’s hard rock, while staying true to their heavier roots.
Changes are happening not only in the musical style, but also in their lineup. Returning from the cast of 2016’s “Metalcore Superstars” are frontman Mika Lahti, singer-guitarist Leevi Luoto and drummer Niko Hyttinen. Additional firepower is provided by new faces Tuukka Ojansivu on guitar and Miska Sipiläinen on bass guitar, as well as the return-to-form of keyboard player Touko Keippilä from the band’s original “Panda <3 Penguin” lineup.
The album shapes up to be the artistic peak of ONE MORNING LEFT's musical "blood mountain": epic lyrics carried by Luoto’s soaring vocal melodies, contrasted by the distinctive, gritty sound of Lahti, all accompanied by breathtaking keyboard leads, blisteringly fast guitars, masterful bass riffs and feverish drum parts.
With the release of »Hyperactive«, ONE MORNING LEFT looks to add to their growing global fan base. Having gathered extensive live performance experience playing countless shows in Finland, touring mainland Europe, Russia, and the Baltics, and even performing in places such as Iceland and Japan, the group is planning on taking their entertaining and energetic live show on the road in the near future.
Founded in 2008 in Vaasa, Finland, ONE MORNING LEFT is well known for their unique blend of electro, hardcore and metalcore influences as well as their entertaining and energetic live shows where absolutely anything can happen. ONE MORNING LEFT has played shows with bands like AMARANTHE, MACHINAE SUPREMACY, ADEPT, PROTEST THE HERO, FEAR OF DOMINATION, TURMION KÄTILÖT and WE BUTTER THE BREAD WITH BUTTER. The band has also graced the Finnish festival season, playing renowned festivals like Tuska Open Air and Rockfest.
ONE MORNING LEFT's debut album »The Bree-Teenz« was released in 2011. The album reached #30 on Finland's official album charts, followed by the sophomore album »Our Sceneration« at #45 in 2013.
