After getting "kicked out" from the record label EMI Group, Mokoma formed their own label called "Sakara Records" in 2003. Nowadays there is also 5 other bands signed to the label.

"Avoin Hauta" (directly: "Open grave"), which is a track on their 'Viides Vuodenaika' EP, is a free translation of Death's song "Open Casket". The track was recorded with Jane Schuldiner's permission and part of the EP's profit was donated to Jane Schuldiner's Cancer Organization.
