"First of the five elements" CD by Warmen

Originally planned as a side project, Janne Wirman is putting his retirement from music behind him and going full throttle with his band WARMEN, founded in 2000. The former Children of Bodom (COB) keyboardist had largely withdrawn from the music industry after the dissolution of the band and the death of his long-time friend and companion, Alexi Laiho, in order to have more time for family and personal life. However, the longing to make music drew him and his brother, Antti, back to the forests of Finland, where they jammed countless days in one of the traditional Finnish cottages. With great joy, they composed the first new songs, and the idea to revive the brothers' old band was born: WARMEN is back! With pure pleasure in playing music and without any economic pressure, more and more songs were created, and with newly gathered energy, the creative fire began to burn again. As a little preview, Reaper Entertainment will release the latest WARMEN album, 'First Of The Five Elements,' on CD for the first time in March 2023. The album was already digitally released in 2014 and produced on CD as part of a crowdfunding campaign for a small number of supporters. The new WARMEN album is planned for summer 2023, so stay tuned and curious.
