 Jouni Mömmö wrote all the lyrics for the group, and the texts often dealt with topics filled with religious symbolism, personal revelations, the apocalypse, death, psychedelia, insanity and stories of love gone wrong.The lyrics were often blaming (sometimes attacking Christianity) and typically depressing, gloomy and mentally disturbed.The name of the band is apparently a reference to the concept of mana in Polynesian mythology.
