Biography
Jyväskylä-based Finnish metalcore collective In Thorns releases new single "wormhusk" on May 29, 2026 — the second chapter of a new cycle following "exit wounds" (January 2026) and their acclaimed debut album "the last bead on a cord of songs" (2024), which placed top 10 in Kaaoszine's newcomer of the year readers' poll.
The collective creates metalcore driven by crushing soundscapes, nihilistic and darkly poetic lyrics, and soaring melodies. Drawing on surrealist art and horror, In Thorns delivers an immersive experience that balances devastating heaviness with haunting beauty. Live, the band's tight, high-energy performance pulls audiences into a dark, surreal world.
