Finnish modern metal band EVENT RELENTLESS are set to release their brand-new single “Light The Fuse” today on Friday, November 6, 2026. The track is the latest preview of the band’s upcoming full-length album, scheduled for release in early 2027, and continues the band’s evolution toward an even heavier, more ambitious and melodic sound.
Formed in 2013, EVENT RELENTLESS have established themselves on the international underground metal scene through more than 150 live shows across 15 countries. Their music has been described as “hybrid metal” — a distinctive combination of aggressive, hard-hitting guitar riffs, technical musicianship, and massive, melodic choruses.
Following the release of their self-titled EP in 2018 and debut full-length album Circle in 2019, the band has continued to release new music and develop their sound. With their upcoming album, EVENT RELENTLESS are pushing their musical boundaries further than ever before.
Light The Fuse – A New Chapter Begins
“Light The Fuse” is one of the tracks featured on the forthcoming album and offers another glimpse into the direction the band is taking. Building on the foundation established by their previously released singles “The Last Chance,” “Way to You,” and “Closer To The End,” the new single further showcases the band’s blend of modern metal heaviness, aggressive riffing, and strong melodic hooks.
Juho Raita comments on the new single: “This song captures the core elements of Event Relentless’ sound, pairing emotionally driven melodies with heavy riffs that give the track its power and weight.” Bassist Henri Soisalo adds: “We see this song as a snapshot of the band’s new sound.”
The track was mixed by Max Morton, known for his work with bands such as Jinjer, Ignea, and Arch Enemy. Juho Raita continues: “Working with Max on this track was awesome. The mix brings out details we’re really proud of, from the melodic layers to the punch of the heavier parts. Max understood exactly what we wanted to achieve.”
The release marks another step toward the upcoming album, which is currently in the works and expected to arrive in early 2027. One more single is also anticipated ahead of the full-length release.

The Upcoming Album
Commenting on the band’s new musical direction, vocalist and guitarist Juho Raita says:
“We are officially working on our next album, and we are pushing our sound further than ever before.
For this record, we are focusing on heavy, hard-hitting riffs that make you want to move, combined with massive, catchy melodic choruses. That balance between raw energy and strong melodic hooks is at the heart of the new EVENT RELENTLESS sound.
We are putting everything we have into these new songs, and we cannot wait for people to hear how the band has evolved. The next chapter starts now.”
With “Light The Fuse,” EVENT RELENTLESS continue building momentum toward their upcoming album, bringing together the raw energy, heaviness, and memorable melodies that define their sound.
