Assuming that when people say they "had a blast," they are thinking of an explosion, my only possible descriptor for the year would have to be "a blast," but referring to an implosion.
Foundations are broken, adjustments are made, we are emptied of everything inside, but while explosions release debris [and send shrapnel] onto surrounding objects or structures, implosions only fall within themselves.
So what do we gain from these demolitions? Certainly new buildings will be built, but the soil will remember what was once there. It does not forget. It knows what we once were, what we are, and what we will be.
To my surprise there is no instrumental track on Viikate's new album Unholan urut. However, "He eivät hengitä" has a pretty intro/instrumental theme, and the song "Autuaat" has a deceptively long intro that is 1' 40" or thereabouts in length. Not to say that the intro to "He eivät hengitä" isn't already 1' 15" long.
