Owned the original release for 20 years but wonderful to finally get the expanded version on digital (OG only had 6 tracks!). Like a more cosmic and groovy Nick Drake but in the enigmatically opaque Finnish language, this is an absolute joy.
Favorite track: Vuosisadan vaihteessa.

about
The long awaited reissue is finally at hand. Ektro Records will publish this classic as a luxurious double vinyl and CD edition JULY 21st.
At the turn of the millennium, Pori Finland based group of adventurers Moon Fog Prophet, born in 1994, arrived at a crossroads. The band had just wrapped up their fourth album Taunting Tin Bells Through The Mammal Void that was in its narrative character, exaggerative scope and dynamic richness a work of art taken to extreme proportions. What next?
The answer was found from the more minimalistic end of the spectrum. The singer-keyboardist Mika Rättö began to take more responsibility for the lyrics of the band. This resulted in a bunch of Finnish language texts, dealing with the sense of alienation among other topics, in a distinctively poetic but touching and identifiable manner.
The guitarist Teemu Majaluoma, the bass player Mikko Elo and the drummer Veli Nuorsaari caught the plot immediately. The group created songs that were much smaller in scale than before and combined hues of folk, jazz and other flavours into a unique blend. The new soundscape of the band was on the one hand intimate and fragile, on the other hand imaginative and rich.
Moon Fog Prophet had exuviated so thoroughly that they decided to release the album Kukin kaappiaan selässään kantaa under the name Kuusumun Profeetta (i.e. Moon Fog Prophet in Finnish) – which was of course a natural decision, as the language of the lyrics had changed. The record got an overwhelmingly ecstatic response especially in the Finnish alternative music circuit, and many now consider the first album under Kuusumun Profeetta name a timeless classic.
The texts and the name in Finnish language did not remain a one album digression, but Kuusumun Profeetta carried on with their mother tongue through six albums and numerous live performances, constantly exploring new musical pathways.
