Rakinua
In a timeless journey of forgotten sounds and lost languages, a musical experience unfolds, narrating the destiny of an ancient priestess caught between sacred rituals and the unknown. Rakinua is born in the shadow of the Alps, where sacrificial rites echoed for nearly 3,000 years. Here, ancient stones hold memories and Raetic symbols, weaving archaeological mysteries into a powerful narrative that speaks across time itself. An otherworldly vision conceived by Velis and Madame Noctinebra, brought to life by an exceptional lineup featuring members of Serenity, Perchta, Sinheresy, and Uttern.
"Esi um ninu – Heal us, Mother”: these words carry the essence of Rakinua's debut album, telling the story of a priestess who, during a crucial ritual, senses something shifting in her tribe's devotion. Her growing fears about the gods' displeasure set desperate acts in motion that will determine her people's fate. The tale unfolds through an oracle who serves as a bridge between past, present, and future.
Rakinua dwells at a unique crossroads of sound, from Heilung, Wardruna, Myrkur, and Eivør to Opeth, Porcupine Tree, and Anathema. Each song creates its own world while remaining bound to the greater story, balancing intimate acoustic passages with powerful riffs and extreme vocals for a profound emotional experience. Rakinua is a gateway to a realm where sacred rituals merge with otherworldly visions, where ancient melodies open the doors to a mystical universe of secrets buried in time.
