Hi everybody!
Was great to see old friends last Friday at Hard Rock House. Thanks for being there, it was a hell of show and a good start for our spring tour.
We have now booked several new live dates for this year, you can check out the Gigs menu for more details. Our live set is now in very good condition and it feels great
to get to play new venues this year. We're rehearsing and arranging new songs and it looks like we’re going to studio again next August or September. We have a clear picture what we want to do and yes, it's gonna be classic hard rock in the spirit of 70's and 80's masters with that special Hittegods edge!
We hope to see many familiar faces together with new people in our live shows. Please check out new dates and be there!
P.S. you can now listen to our "We Shall Never Surrender" anthem at Youtube.com with some pictures taken at On The Rocks on 30 December last year. You can find the link in Videos menu.
P.P.S. We accept new friends at our Facebook site too, sign in and become a friend!
Let’s keep on rockin’!
Mikko, HP & Anssi

Hello everybody, we wish you all have a nice summer. We are very happy with our latest "You Reap What You Sow" demo/EP and it's now been distributed to media and record companies everywhere in order to take the band forward. We're also rehearsing our new live set for the fall and a couple of new dates have been added there too. Please take some time to listen to the new material at "Music" link on our site, hope you like it too.
After holidays we'll shoot the new video in August/September and hope to see many of you at On The Rocks on Friday 28th of August. Cheers!

We were in the studio at the end of April and recorded four new songs. Sessions took place in Soundtrack studios in Helsinki where drums and bass were recorded and in “Neveland” studios in Porvoo, where guitars and vocals were recorded. The producer and engineer was Olli Kykkänen, ex Royal Tramps guitarist and well known for his work with Peer Günt and Los Bastardos Finlandese. The tracks were recorded are called “You Reap What You Sow”, “Live And Learn”, “Now And Forever” and “We Shall Never Surrender”. We really enjoyed our time in the studio and are very happy with the results. New songs are of course added in our gig set immediately. The material is now being mixed and will be released shortly. Plans to shoot a new video for one of the songs are also under way.
The gigs we played this spring were all successful and we look forward to play live again next autumn. Five gigs have already been booked and we’re especially excited to play On The Rocks in Helsinki again 28th of August. Mikko will also perform in Firmarock 2009 finals in October as the frontman and lead singer of Finnsatiaiset band.
Check out all new bookings for this fall on “Gigs” link.

New songs are rehearsed and arrangements are getting ready little by little. Working titles of the songs are “Ballad”, “Grunge” and “Fast” that give you some idea of what they’re like. The band is now recording the rehearsals in order to develop songs and playing before going to studio later on this spring. Everybody is exited about the next gigs and negotiations with festivals next summer are under way.

Happy new year to everybody. Looking back we are happy with the year 2008, many good gigs, well-received “Flower Power” –demo and video took us forward in many areas. We’ll dedicate January 2009 for rehearsing news songs and live sets. We are now planning going to the studio in April-May. The atmosphere inside the band is good and we’re exited about the new songs, which are somewhat different from our previous material.
