LUNA KILLS, Finland’s rising alt-metal sensation, has unleashed their ferocious new single, “LEECH,” the third single taken from the recently announced album, “DEATHMATH,” set for release on April 4th, 2025 via SharpTone Records. The album promises to be a defining statement for the band, showcasing their emotionally charged lyrics and unrelenting sound. Previously, LUNA KILLS released “sugar rush” and “slay your enemies,” both of which earned critical acclaim and cemented the band’s place as a rising force in modern alt-metal.
Vocalist Lotta Ruutiainen commands the track with haunting, powerful vocals, while the band’s signature combination of heavy riffs, thunderous drums, and driving bass amplifies the song’s dark yet anthemic energy.
“LEECH” is a raw depiction of battling depression and thoughts of self harm” vocalist Lotta Ruutiainen explains. “Its lyrics portray the denial and avoidance of facing the depths of the illness, even as it spirals out of control. Ultimately it conveys the painful understanding of staying in that place, where fear and self-hatred have entwined so tightly with one’s identity that they seem impossible to separate.”
Lotta shares a surprising insight into the creative process: “The song was one of the last few we wrote for the album, and the music came together in a more relaxed and joyful manner than the lyrics might suggest. It’s one of those songs that came together quickly because everyone instantly connected with the melodies and rhythms and had a shared vision for it.”
LUNA KILLS has added new dates to their 2025 tour schedule. With major festival appearances and an album release show on the horizon, these live performances promise to showcase the band’s raw energy and unforgettable stage presence.
