Doom metal until this all ends
An execrable shape has grown in the darkness. The black heart beats to the rhythm of chaos. Spreading its wings. Engulfing the only faint light of hope in darkness. The cadaver has resurrected. Kalmo is here.
After finding a true name in Kalmo, ominous visions of the inescapable doom have been falling into place in the darkness. This one-man doom metal project has been more active over the past two years, producing new material and releasing music videos.
There is only one mind, one lost soul in the core of Kalmo. The axes of doom guitars and bass are played and the dark cries are bawled by this man. The beat of doom is conjured up with the black magic of state-of-the-art, technical drumslade witchery.
Kalmo's dark heart is filled with scorching flames of excitement to release new EP Dominus Meus on October 20, 2023.
This is where the end begins.
Hailing from the haunting landscapes of Finland, Kalmo, the enigmatic force of blackened doom metal, is set to unleash their third opus, “Dominus Meus” EP. Embrace the abyss as Kalmo’s tormented soul weaves nightmarish tales of darkness and despair. Read more from the press release here.
Album will be availabe at Kalmo’s Bandcamp page.
The time of wrath and rage is here. Kalmo’s album Gehinnim was released on April 13th 2021.
The contains six psalms that prophecy
the end of this all. Each canticle is its own piece of a story,
but they all share the same sinister dark tone.
Album is released through Sliptrick Records. CD and digital version will be added to the Kalmo’s Bandcamp page after Dominus Meus release.
There is no salvation, no place to escape. The demons are here. Plans of doom take shape.
A fistful of hymns of darkness have been released to shed the darkness over the all land.
The EP is available as a digital edition and a CD release. Kalmo makes its doom in Finnish: for those doomed ones not so familiar with this brutal language, the CD version contains a booklet with lyrics in both Finnish and English. Also available is a Demoni t-shirt, for wrapping that doomed cadaver in.

doom-metal.comKalmon ilmaisu on parhaimmillaan synkkää, raakaa sekä sopivan rupista. Hienostelua tai kirkkaan puhtoista soundimaailmaa on turha odottaa, sillä nyt mennään pimeyttä kohti jalat edellä. Read full review here.

Metalliluolabut as a whole it turns out to be a freakish but working contraption built of ugly and crude parts, however, and while it seems like a lumbering golem of bones and rotting flesh, it works like a charm once it reveals its workings to anyone it manages to lure to return to it. There is something infective in the way the parts of the unholy machine work. Read full review here.

Metal-archives.comDie Musik von KALMO ist vielschichtig und definitiv keine Alltagsmusik den sich jedermann/frau antun wird. Fakt ist, mit dieser Facette haben die Jungs einen schier unnachahmlichen Sound geschaffen, den sich eine breite Facette an Doom und Black Metal Fans zu Gemüte führen sollte. Mit der Vielschichtigkeit der dunklen und derb-morbiden Soundarrangierung ist dies unveränderlich deren Baustelle. Read full review here.
