Stam1na elokuutio album review

Elokuutio is the seventh studio album by Finnish progressive metal band Stam1na. It was produced by Janne Joutsenniemi and mixed by Jens Bogren. The album's title Elokuutio can mean eloquence, but can also be translated as "living cube". Lyricist Antti Hyyrynen describes the album's theme as the "digital hell of the unreligious".

On January 8, 2016 the track listing and cover art of the album was revealed. On February 19, the first single from the album, "Kuudet raamit", was released, and a week later a 360 music video directed by Tuomas Petsalo was released.
