Aavikko’s new album Okeanos witnesses the Finnish synth ensemble following the lead of dolphins and returning to the ocean. The band’s leap of faith completes the mytho-evolutionary cycle of rhythm and melody by dissolving the two in the pelagic plains of harmony. Abandoning the rhythm... 

Finland’s avant-rock explorers, Circle are at it again. Just a few months after their brutal exploitation of the capitalistic mindset behind the super rock idiom, Circle plunge into the oceanic depths of true self-expression with their new album, Leviatan. Combining acoustic... 

Circle album Forest reissue with new artwork. Acoustic music has rarely, if ever, sounded this eery and menacing. This is a classic album by a classic lineup! "Forest is a flat-out, albeit dark dark dark, longhaired hippy record."

Pori is much more than just the fifth studio album by the Finnish experimental-rock institution Circle. It’s also the name of a small post-industrial city near the Gulf of Bothnia, where...

“Finnish supergroup Circle and filmmaker/artist Mika Taanila’s new SSEENNSSEESS show is spectacular, somewhat akin to an over-the-top rock opera and a theatrical audio-visual performance... 

Re-released and remastered, the legendary second album from 1996 captures Circle roaming the deep waters of monotonic ritual and manic psychedelia. The album marked the end of an era culminating their epic occult rock and roll. Zopalki offers a penetrating glimpse into a time forever lost, but...

Compiling the contents of Fortuna (“Fortuna”) and Kevät (“Spring”), two digital-only EPs recorded during the last couple of years, Hebosagil’s latest vinyl offering is an incandescent leap forward that unapologetically embraces lush beauty and symphonic warmth.

After their triumphant debut album, Kuusumun Profeetta went deeper and further into the process of creating new music and lyrics. As a result, their second album is an undisputed landmark of Finnish music scene in the early 21st... 

Vuosituhannen vaihteessa porilainen, vuonna 1994 alkunsa saanut seikkailuryhmä Moon Fog Prophet saapui tienhaaraan. Yhtye oli juuri saattanut valmiiksi neljännen albuminsa Taunting Tin Bells Through The Mammal Void, joka oli tarinallisuudessaan, suureellisuudessaan...

Effortlessly, your feet work the ultra-clean clock signal, as you march deeper into the cavernous mining meshwork of the ever Fraggle-rocking druidic Doozers. Down toward The Nexus, eyes popping from their methaphorical sockets, at the sight of huge subterraneous vallum... 

It’s hard to decide whether the ultimate value of Jussi Lehtisalo’s 8th full-length solo outing lies in its startlingly clear but throughly unorthodox musical vision – kilometres ahead of nearly anyone else’s...

Heavy rock licks roll off the strings of this guitar-heavy combo augmented by metallurgist Jussi Kangas. Demons in the rising sun whipping their axes like cream! "Now we know!" "Stoner rock needed an enema, and Pharaoh Overlörd were there with the nozzle." Nice reissue of...

On this album we continue on the path we laid on our last demo *Insurgency*. The album was recorded in our home studio, which was a natural choice after being fed up with the music business and ”real” studios. The base tracks were recorded by the two... 

Kun Räjäyttäjät ilmestyivät palttiarallaa kymmenen vuotta sitten suomalaiselle kasetti-, keikka- ja levykentälle, yhtyeen nimi näyttäytyi lähinnä puhdistavana tulena. Räjäyttäjät...

After a period of deep hibernation, Rättö and Lehtisalo are struggling to reclaim the pop markets with their new twisted album. With mathematically calculated hit song formulas having conveniently gone missing, the result is popular music from the other side of the... 

Röyhkä ja Rättö ja Lehtisalo -kokoonpanon mainion Hiekkarantaa-albumin jälkeen parivaljakko Rättö ja Lehtisalo taikovat hatustaan hieman vaisun levyn. Levy vaikuttaa välityöltä, jonka tasapaksun keskitempoisissa kappaleissa hittipotentiaali loistaa poissaolollaan. Naiivisti... 

Unreleased recordings from the Yugoslav underground. The ’80s material mixes funky Dadaist absurdity, no wave destruction, and alienated post-punk, but by the ’90s, SexA mutated into a filthy, primal noise-rock concern. 

Steel Mammoth released six albums of psychedelic boogie stompers and/or pure punk metal warfare during the first 10 years of the band’s existence. These hard rock recordings...
