Finnish metal band Negaatio is set to release their debut album ‘Mieleni Murtama’ on April 10th 2026 via Inverse Records. The fourth and final single ‘Mania’ is unleashed today and it’s available on all major streaming services: https://push.fm/fl/negaatio-mania

Jani (vocals) and Petrus (bass, backing vocals) share some background on the track ”Mania”:

Petrus: “We all have the potential in life to drive ourselves absolutely stir-crazy over some hellish obsession. It might not show on the outside if you build concrete walls around your inner world—then suddenly, you find yourself running head-first into them, driven by a force you can’t control.”

Jani: “A fake smile might stretch across your face, but you’re still being strangled by your own necktie as your inner world and obsessions push you to the brink of madness without a moment’s rest.”

Petrus: “In a situation like that, a person can push themselves right to the edge, and it’s terrifying. It’s not just your health that’s being weighed, but your entire reality and humanity. These are the themes we wanted to portray in ‘Mania.’ ”

Founded at the end of 2022, Negaatio has brought in the blink of an eye original tones to the Finnish metal scene, with a fierce and crushing touch.

The five-man group, who have focused their activities in Tampere, create a wide mood palette with their music, which has nuances of hopelessness, rage, and reflection.

In the music of Negaatio, extreme and repulsive topics are not ignored but confronted in all their horror, almost compulsively. 

The heavy playing transports the listener towards a cracking state of mind.

The band has received praise from numerous performances and won bronze at the Emergenza 2025 finals in the Tampere region.

Negaatio firmly believes in its own vision, doing it with the purest passion and offering the heavy metal populace unexpected live energy, a sense of danger, and iron-like skill.

Line-up:
Jani Myllylä – Vocals
Eero Jaakkola – Guitar

Petrus Markkinen – Bass
Waltteri Santala – Drums
