"The waves have now a redder glow-
The hours are breathing faint and low-
And when, amid no earthly moans,
Down, down that town shall settle hence,
Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
Shall do it reverence."
-Edgar Allan Poe, 1850
Final form of Raakku was founded by the the time snow was melting in Finland in spring of 2006. Raakku began to produce melancholic metal with a strong atmosphere. Along the year many songs emerged, two of which ended up on a 2-song EP “Seed Divine”, recorded in June 2006.
Raakku has shared stage with names like Cryhavoc, Codeon, Dismay, Fall of The Leafe, Smoke Society, Endomorphism, Kauna, Sonic Mind and End of You - just to name a few. What the future holds is still unclear but it has an essence of mist-drenched moors and moonlit groves!

We are happy to see a good year go towards a good end. Again we will be playing our Christmas Show in the Moscow Megasphere - and that really makes us happy. The Moscow crowd is one of the best in the world and we would love to have you all with is. It's gonna be one hell of a rock party!
Our website has undergone major updates at the moment, but it's back and we highly recomment that you pick up your free Single and DVD "Chase the Dragon" and tell us what you think.
In the meantime Rozencrantz is back in the studio, working on brand new material.
First of all a warm thank you to you for all the support and friendship you shared with us over time.
We have just finishing up the recordings in the studio and are mixing at the moment, also we will get new pictures taken on the 21th of March and roll our new video clip at the end of the month.
With the best regards and the best wishes for the week,
Horatio of ROZENCRANTZ
