Absolutely Launched: A Descent into Misanthropic Melodies
The Sound of Destruction
Absolutely Launched is music purpose-built for destruction — of property, others, or the self. Demonic Death Judge is indifferent, as long as there’s less order in the world after each spin of their new record. The Finnish group packages smart, sophisticated riffs into neuron-eradicating, nihilistic stoner-sludge that ought to be enjoyed at full volume with your favorite vice. We’ve got an early stream to enable that, though for legal purposes, we ask that you stick to at least quasi-legal activities — dive in below:

Music That Speaks Nasty Truths
The song titles may evoke a chuckle, but the music behind them is anything but humorous. Demonic Death Judge delivers a delightfully nasty soundscape where drums and vocals often take a backseat, allowing the snarling guitars to dominate. The result is a thumping backbeat paired with misanthropic narration. While other bands might fill the musical gaps with intricate polyrhythmic drumming and flashy bass lines, Demonic Death Judge chooses to saturate their sound with a superfund-worthy sludginess. Just listen to that bass tone!
Exploring Depths of Emotion
When the distortion takes a breather, as seen in the midsection of “Goner,” the band’s psychedelic influences begin to surface. This showcases vocalist Jaakko Heinonen’s impressive range as he navigates the darker trenches of human emotion. It becomes evident that their amps do indeed have volume knobs after all. After the initial tracks slam into listeners like a high-speed motor vehicle, the expectation for subtlety fades away. However, Demonic Death Judge employs their expertly crafted sludge with a deft yet downtrodden touch.
Insights from the Band
Vocalist Jaakko Heinonen
“Some of this stuff was written during the pandemic. And it is pretty bleak stuff. Some was done after it. And you’d think the vibe would be somewhat brighter. But really, it isn’t. It’s an album of struggling to keep up with life in this unforgiving society. Mainly drinking through it all. These riffs are fucking heavy, so what else am I gonna write about? Times are not looking much better, but I’m glad we made it here! And have something to show for it.”
Guitarist Toni Raukola
“These riffs reek of blues, petrol, and violence. ‘Absolutely Launched’ is by far the filthiest record we’ve ever made.”
Release Information
Absolutely Launched is set to release on April 30th via Suicide Records.
