The band released their second new song, 'Murtuneet'.

"This song combines wistful and catchy melodies, versatile moods and a stark story. Even though there are several elements in this song, musical story arc stands firm," depicted composer, guitarist Tuukka Tuomela.

"'Murtuneet' deals with wars and their consequences, but from unconventional point of view. No heroes here, only victims. Wars leave behind dead, wounded and broken people. Long shadows fall and reach through decades and generations. Some use them for their benefit, some suffer from them, some just try to cope with them," analysed bassist Hannu Savolainen, the writer of the lyrics.

The first single 'Saatto' was released last month:

"Saatto is an epilogue of life and the first chapter of 'Anima'. The album presents the darkest and the most melacholic Noumena so far. Saatto has been born out of sorrow, desperation and anger. I hope that these emotions pass on to the listener," told guitarist/vocalist Ville Lamminaho.
