With “What We Leave Behind”, BRYMIR turn cinematic Melodic Death Metal into their darkest and most outspoken statement yet, confronting a world shaped by vanity, conflict, and existential dread. METAL KAOZ connected with Jarkko Niemi to discuss why their fifth studio album took so long, why Metal can be better than therapy, and why AI still cannot headbang. From their worst review and the strange reality of Finnish Metal shows to touring America and still feeling at the beginning after 20 years, Jarkko reflects with honesty and openness.
Helsinki-based melodic Death metallers BRYMIR have just released their new album, “What We Leave Behind”, via Napalm Records. Watch the entire chat with Jarkko Niemi below.
