Lyricist Pekka Kainulainen comments the theme of the track: “I got the idea to reverse the direction of the Tuonela stream - Tuonela is the realm of the dead in Finnish mythology. So, I started writing from the moment of death... And death was not the end, but the beginning.”

In addition, the band has launched a special collaboration with “Pook Watches” for a unique collector’s item: Pook On The Dark Waters-watch. The watches have a 3-year warranty and their components have been selected so that the watch is functional for a long time and serviceable by a clock smith. All units are assembled at Pook’s watch workshop in Joensuu, Finland, and will be crafted as a limited edition with each package featuring a greeting signed by the band. Delivery of the watches will begin in the Spring of 2022. Pre-orders for the watches can be placed starting from today at www.pookwatches.com.
