Finnish prog rock four-piece Sisare is releasing their new album 'Leaving the Land' on January the 19th. Now the band presents their first single and music video 'Geno' - a groovy psychedelic rock trip to the moon.

[MA GDPR YouTube] Invalid video id."The life of an american astronaut Eugene Cernan (1937-2017) made me think what a person can achieve with the right mindset. Cernan's story reminds us, that when you pursue your dreams, there will be sudden setbacks that are beyond your control. In the end it comes down to your mindset - and what are you willing to sacrifice in order to reach the most meaningful things in your life."
'Leaving the Land' explores the universe from multiple perspectives. It dives through the concept of time, ego death and escapism - just to name a few. Every song is a story and a trip, where the band sometimes explores the rhythmic dimensions, sometimes stands in awe of all creation and sometimes rides towards the end or beginning of times with screaming fuzz. The new album is more progressive, more psychedelic and less metal than their debut album Nature's Despair. The atmospheric soundscapes and post-rocking guitars carry through the stories of 'Leaving the Land', where the lead guitar often takes the role of storytelling through melody. No keyboards were used on this record - this is pure guitar music!
"Sisare gives me the opportunity to search for new dimensions and narrate in free form, but without the possibility of using keyboards. This challenges me to find new perspectives to guitar arrangements - making every new composition an exploration to the very core of art rock."
Severi Peura - Vocals, lead guitar
Rauli Elenius - Drums
Hermanni Piltti - Bass

The band has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to get 'Leaving the Land' pressed on vinyl. The album has been produced, recorded and mixed by Severi Peura and mastered by Jaime Gomez Arellano (Ghost, Paradise Lost, Ulver, Electric Wizard).
Leaving the Land will be out in 19th of January 2018 through V.R.Label Finland.
