Frontlines

Biography

The journey of Frontlines began in the summer of 2006 when Kai Kinnunen and Marko Jaara decided to create some metal music to please themselves and a whole group of friends with programmed drums and guitar parts recorded at home in front of a computer. After couple of newborn songs guys started to wonder if they could be played for real at a rehearsal space. They took a shot at it and it worked! The songs really came alive. The first thing they had to do to get things going was to find a bass player. Add was released on the net and so they found Jussi Lassila who already was a familiar face from the local heavy metal bar. They managed to have a couple of training sessions but then things went on hold. Marko had to move to Hattula for six months because of school commitments. So they couldn't play together for a long time, but Marko and Kai managed to create new songs with the help of modern day communication gadgets. Half a year passed, training started and so did the search for a vocalist. Tiku Korhonen joined the group and the first gig was played at the "Hardrock-2007" happening at Utajarvi. Unfortunately shortly after that paths separated with Tiku.

In the fall of 2008 after long and frustrating search Simo Järvinen was discovered to fill the vocal slot. Things clicked in both music and chemistry between the guilty parties and so the lineup became complete. First demo was recorded, mixed and mastered by Jari Niemi in december 2008. Now we are ready to hit the stages!!
