Soulgrind returns with "Dark Water Wide", the third single from the 10th album "Ad Pulchram Mortem"
The legendary Finnish metal band Soulgrind, founded in 1992, is set to release its tenth album "Ad Pulchram Mortem" on August 14th 2026 via Inverse Records.
The third single "Dark Water Wide" is unleashed today and it's available here: Push FM
The band comments:
"Dark Water Wide leads the listener deep into the shadowed currents of Tuonela — the mythic river of the underworld — where the journey drifts through the darker depths of the mind.
Heavy yet beautifully melodic, the song blends Nordic atmosphere with Finnish darkness. Its harmonic structure weaves minor seventh chords tainted by subtle twists, creating a sense of tension and melancholy. Azhemin conjured the melodies, while Lilith shaped them into form — grounded by Suntio’s relentless, pounding rhythm that resonates through the entire composition.
Dark Water Wide is a voyage across vast, dark waters — an introspective descent into death’s beauty, embodying the very essence of Ad Pulchram Mortem."

BIOGRAPHY:
Soulgrind is a Finnish metal band formed in 1992, known for blending gothic metal, thrash and black metal into a dark, melodic atmosphere. The band was founded by Lord Heikkinen, who has consistently contributed guitar and programming. Since 1999 Miika 'Azhemin' Niemelä has handled keyboards and programming, later adding harsh vocals.
Soulgrind's music often explores themes related to the darker aspects of Finnish history and psyche, combining passion, war, and the "dark side of mind" into their lyrical content, reflecting a deep connection to Finland's cultural and historical roots. But there has always been the bride side for the aspects as well. Classic war of love and hate.The sound has evolved over the time, but Soulgrind has maintained a core identity rooted in metal with a dark, atmospheric edge, resisting strict genre categorization and embracing musical development freely. Freedom of metal has always been the theme. And so it shall be.
Soulgrind is recognized for their intelligent and unique approach to metal, merging melodic and dark elements to create a distinctive sound within the Finnish metal scene. Their long-standing presence since the early 90s marks them as a significant act in the gothic and black metal genres in Finland.
