Metal Shock Finland (World Assault )

KELLUVAT IKKUNAT is the solo project of Sammal guitarist Jura Salmi.
The debut album of the same name, released today, is a guitar-driven, nautical-inspired instrumental piece of music. All six songs include influences from the guitarist composer as well as the life situations, geographical locations, and strong feelings.

Jura comments:

This album is a journey back home — not just to a place, but to myself. By the sea in my new hometown Helsinki, I found myself rethinking who I am and where I belong. Each track is born from raw presence and emotions, stirred by places and moments.
Recordings were completed with an old friend Jaakko Rinne on the drums, and arguably the best bassist of Finland at the moment, Ami Kajan.
I hope listeners find as much freedom, space, and rootedness in this recording, as I found in
making it.

Itämerenneito is the first of the six songs to be released as I think it has a nice “summery” vibe.

Kelluvat Ikkunat was recorded by Mikko Hellström and Jussi Vuola, mixed by Jussi Vuola at V.R. Studio and mastered by Jaime Gomez Arellano (Ghost, Opeth, Paradise Lost)  at Orgone Studios.
