In short: Gravedigger metal. The group has built a strong image with lyrics, dressing, stage properties and logos etc. They have even got their own hearse for carrying their instruments.

The band has also gotten attention due to their skills: A lead singer with a strong voice (Ms. Maya), lead guitar virtuoso (Mr. Cerberos) and of course convincing live performances. The talented new keyboard player (Ms Erna) is also know from the ranks of Lordi during the years 97-05. Two sold out pressings have been made of their 2005 self released promo-CD before the debut album. The band comes from the Turku area in Finland.
