It is us playing in the tram!!!

False Teeth, track nine of Inertia. This is a song about dentists and the lovely "Who cares" attitude of our society.

I have no idea how you found my blog (twincest), but I'm so glad you did. I love your music!!Wrote about you, hope you get another listener or two out of it :)

Thanks! Everything is so easy find in the internet you know :) We appreciate you writing about us very much!

Sunshine and a cup of tea

Definitely for our own, but also for the amusement of others we've just finished recordings for our upcoming first album. T-mu has done a tremendous job at Not Even Productions mixing our album to its fullest potential. A few nods here and little to the left and we're done.   The recordings took place in several locations, mainly in Oulu and Tampere though in different studio-like environments. Nonetheless I feel like it's going to sound exactly the way we want it to, and we've -at least I have- enjoyed this whole ride. Still, it's an even higher mountain to climb now if we want -and we do- this album spread and heard as far and in as many a place possible and also if we'd get to play more gigs than before, well that would be just super.   The whole  let's-make-an-album-thing has been in our heads from the start but truly kicked off last September when I visited T-mu in Tampere. We recorded bases for 10 songs. There was some new songs and some old, slightly altered. Our style has been known for jumping from side to side and borrowing from style to style still maintaining some kind of focal point and consensus. I think. We didn't want this record to be written about, or under one topic, since this whole thing was done in pieces and over time. And even the 600km distances of our band makes us use our imagination and our computers a little more, it was fun and a hugely innovative process. Besides, we decided the album name to be Inertia, which can be extended to be labeled as a pseudo force (in centrifugal things) or a fictional force. So that included I think we had a quite broad field of choice.  And because it's a mechanical term it allowed us to try some really fun stuff on the side. I think it's going to be a funny, rockin' little package with shitloads of attitude and g-strings. -M.

Wonderboy - The final track of our first LP "Inertia"!

Myspace renovation

Nice! Our Myspace has gone through minor (pun intended) renovation and is now.... YELLOW!

Musti is working on his suitcase bass drum. He is using a drill and a screwdriving head to install a piece of plywood, which holds the pedal in place.

This is one of our new songs. It doesn't even have a name yet so I gave it a temporary name: "Knock Knock". We played it in 45 Special, Oulu a couple weeks ago.
