Gutna by Ruohtta

This first full-length album by Ruohtta, a one-man effort, begins with the ignition of a match (taulatikku) and departs in ashes (gutna). The music and lyrical content on the album may be seen as a continuation of the Reetessä EP although focusing on even darker and rawer sound territories. There are less ambient features and more straight forward Black metal aggression found here. The lyrics, performed in a mixed language of Meänkieli and Sámi, channelizes violent resistance, vengeance and dark history in the circumpolar region. Gutna does not hesitate, it goes directly for the throat.

All songs, lyrics and instruments are composed, arranged and performed by Tervaaja

Engineered by Björn Pettersson Thuuri at Heart of Sounds in Giron during November 2020

Mixed by B. Thuuri & Tervaaja

Mastered by Jesper Dahlström in December 2020
