Hailing from Turku, Finland,SVARTA HAVETare set to release their sophomore albumMånen ska lysa din vägfor the European marketviaSvart Recordson February 27th, 2026. Originally released by the US basedProsthetic Recordsin May 2025,Månen ska lysa din vägcasts a critical eye over the negative effects of Western colonialism, capital greed and convenience at the cost of sustainability, presenting a rallying cry for change whilst never losing sight of the light that this world has to offer.Formed in 2018,SVARTA HAVETis a self-described dyster (gloomy) post-hardcore groupborn from the Finnish DIY punk and hardcore scene, with the members bonding over a shared affinity for punk music and community-first ideals with a focus on antifascist, feminist, trans and queer politics. Where their 2021 debut full-length,JORD/VATTEN, served as an introduction toSVARTA HAVET’s amalgam sound of post-metal, hardcore punk and black metal,Månen ska lysa din vägis a deftly woven together panorama of their respective influences and a captivatingly urgent political and compassionately personal case for humanity’s course correction.With communities residing at the heart of their purpose, on a localised and a broad scale,SVARTA HAVETare not ones to lay idle in their hopes of a better world. 2026 will continue to see the band both touring their home country and beyond, as well as being deeply involved in organizing gigs and events through the collectively-run venue, Kirjakahvila ("Book Cafe") – a queer feminist, anti-capitalist DIY community space in Finland. In addition to hosting local acts, the group’s tireless efforts to support international bands will continue to seeSVARTA HAVEThelping to foster a vibrant underground scene in the process.
