Background notes
Archive material and source history
Vetten Äpärät formed in Tampere, Finland in 1988. They're a hardcore punk band whose name translates to 'Brothers of Hate,' which also became the title of their debut album. The original lineup included Pasi Kankkunen on vocals, Pekka 'Pexi' Rehn on guitar, Risto 'Risu' Paakkari on bass, and Jari 'Jarppa' Salminen on drums.
Their music has always been raw and aggressive, with lyrics that tackle social and political issues. Songs like 'Brothers Of Hate' and 'Sydäntalven Viha' reflect their stance against oppression. Over time, their sound has incorporated elements of thrash metal and crust punk while keeping that hardcore foundation.
Kankkunen has been the constant member through various lineup changes. The band has maintained their activist approach, using their platform to address topics like racism and police brutality. They've recorded other tracks including 'Life After Lies' and 'Winter Darkness' over their three decades of activity.
