A Heinola band that formed in 1991 and kept writing direct lyrics through lineup changes.
If you want to get a feel for them, 'Huomenna' and 'Romanssi' are good places to start. They frame that mix of melody and matter-of-fact writing pretty well.
They've been making Finnish rock for over three decades, and their songs don't shy away from much. The track 'Huomenna' is one of their most played, and their lyrics on songs like 'Kadut' and 'Odotus' have drawn criticism for how directly they handle tough topics. That bluntness is part of what's kept them around.
They got attention with their 1996 debut 'Attack of the A.L.P.' and songs like 'Mitä koulupojalle tapahtuu?'. By 1998 they'd put out 'Syrjäytynyt', and after guitarist Janne Heiskanen left in 2005, Toni Wirtanen and Sipe Santapukki carried on as a duo.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
