Explicit lyrics
The band comments:
“ “I’ll Wait For You On The Ground” tells of a difficult and self-destroying relationship between two people. There is so much bottomless hatred and crushing pain between them that a life together feels impossible. In this situation, it feels as though the only way to release their pent-up emotions is through death. As the song’s title suggests, the one who dies first is left waiting for the other to arrive in the afterlife. This waiting is rooted in the idea that this grim and inevitable fate belongs to both of them. They are bound to each other not only in life, but also in destruction and until the very end. The song depicts how hatred and pain can blend together in a fateful way. Ultimately, death is seen as the only bringer of peace and connection in this relationship doomed to destruction.”
BIOGRAPHY:
SLüRK is a Finnish alt-groove metal band from Kaustinen, Finland. Formed in 2024 by a ragtag group of friends who met at Kaustinen College of Music, they combine the technical prowess of Gojira, crushing heaviness of Crowbar, the total rawness of Pantera and the mellowness of Deftones. All this combined with the band’s deeply personal and intimate lyrics creates an extremely memorable experience, both from the studio or live.
Currently, the band is working on their new EP called “A Line To Cross” and are planning on releasing it in 2027.
Line-up:
Amy Devon – Vocals
Remus Pöppönen – Guitar & Backing Vocals
Lauri Sia – Guitar
Neo Kuorikoski – Bass
Nuutti Saari – Drums & Percussion
