The Helsinki-based rock band FLAT EARTH has released a new single, '1985', continuing their recognizable blend of heavy rock and melodic alternative rock.

The song is about the things we carry with us through life — memories, experiences, people, and emotions that remain long after moments have passed.

FLAT EARTH comments: "'1985' is about what we take with us.

The people, moments and emotions that stay with us through the years." Musically, the single combines heavy guitars, strong melodies, and organic instrumentation that have become trademarks of FLAT EARTH.

The influence of 1990s grunge can be clearly heard throughout the track, combined with a modern production approach.

Customers purchasing through the band's webshop will receive an exclusive bonus track, "Below My Floor", recorded during the "Cyberain" sessions.

The track features drums performed by Wille Granö.

FLAT EARTH was formed after Niclas Etelävuori fell out with his manager and exited AMORPHIS.

He started looking for possible bandmates and eventually found former HIM member Mikko Lindström (guitar) and POLANSKI singer Anttoni Pikkarainen to complete the trio.

Their debut album "None For One" released in 2018 established them as a powerful new force on the Nordic rock scene, followed by their sophomore album "High On Lies" in 2022.
