Russian avant-garde metal band Second To Sun have released a new track, named 'Ladoga Master'.  The song is about a shooting incident at ​Karelian lake. 

"The incident took place on Saturday 15, 2015. At approximately 8:00 PM a man in the boat started shooting at people on the beach while also cursing in foul language and shouting “Ladoga is mine!” 

At that time there were many women and kids on the beach whom the man scared to death. Tourists from St. Petersburg managed to get close to the armed man who reacted by pressing the armed gun against the stomach of one of the tourists. 

Fortunately no one was hurt and the tragedy was avoided, as was stated in social media public page “Lahdenpohja navsegda” (Lahdenpohja forever). The man was disarmed of his rifle; he himself was securely tied and delivered to the recreation facility from where the police was called. The arrested “rifleman” appeared to be a citizen of Sortavala, born in 1954 and completely drunk." 
The music of Second To Sun can be described as avant-garde metal, combining metal, hardcore, black metal and Finno-Ugric cultural music.  Since 2012, there have been several line-up changes but the now mainly one-man act is still going strong and continues to evolve.  

In October 2015, they released the album 'The First Chapter', which gained excellent comments everywhere, including on Merchants Of Air (read review)

The band’s logo has an octagram (Auseklis), the 8-pointed star that represents Venus and is used in Finno-Ugric symbolic. This is also what the band’s name means. The band’s motto is “music for the sake of music”, the visual component of the band’s activity has always been minimal.
