6. Nicumo - Storm's Arise
Hailing from Finland, Nicumo are possibly one of the most underground bands to appear in this article. Having released their debut record in 2013, Nicumo stepped it up a level in 2017 with their second album, ‘Storms Arise’.
This melancholic metal masterpiece was an incredible display of downbeat, considered and meaningful rock from start to finish. This record earned the band international recognition for the first time but it definitely deserved much more commercial success than it received. Key songs from this record included the methodical, moody sounding 'Death, Let Go' as well as the thumping and progressive 'Old World Burning'.
As far as toruing is concerned, Nicumo have rarely ventured beyond Finland but the release of this album allowed them to play in a total of 6 European nations. Nicumo released their third studio album earlier this year titled ‘Inertia’ through Finnish label, Inverse Records.
