What Finnish band can really compete with HIM?
« on: October 07, 2007, 04:01:35 AM »
HIM is the greatest band from Finland. But there are also good bands there, UK or Germany are nothing compared to Finland when it comes to good music. No, I don't live in Finland :P. So what Finnish band can really compete with HIM?

Poisonblack or Charon!

HIM is always the best, but Nightwish and The Rasmus are good too.

Oh, and I forgot to mention Sentenced. They're far far better than some 69 Eyes or Rasmus :P

But Poisonblack does. Maybe it's not as good as Sentenced, but still better than Rasmus, Negative and 69 Eyes ;) And

NEGATIVE!!!    69 eyes and Poison black are Good bands and of course the
One and Only "Hanoi Rocks"!!!!


Nightwish is not the same anymore
The Rasmus Is a"strange rock-pop" personally i do not like... i know the thread is not about what we like.

One thing is really annoying, at least for me - HIM is labeled as band like Negative, Rasmus and 69 Eyes instead band like Sentenced, PB and Charon, while HIM's music is closer to Charon than to Rasmus.

I don't think any of them come close to HIM really but as far as finnish bands, it would be

HIM
Nightwish
The 69 Eyes
The Rasmus

i don't really like the others in the list

Anyone heard Northern Kings? It's a band with vocalists of 4 great finnish bands - M. Hietala (Nightwish, Tarot), J. Ahola (Terasbetoni), T. Kakko (Sonata Arctica) and the best one - J.P. Leppaluoto (Charon, Harmaja, ex-Poisonblack). They released album with 13 covers of old well-known songs:

1. Don't Stop Believin'
2. We Don't Need Another Hero
3. Broken Wings
4. Rebel Yell
5. Ashes To Ashes
6. Fallen On Hard Times
7. I Just Died In Your Arms
8. Sledgehammer
9. Don't Bring Me Down
10. In The Air Tonight
11. Creep
12. Hello
13. Brothers In Arms

Their cover of Rebel Yell is amazing. I'm sorry to say that, but it's far better than HIM version. We Don't Need Another Hero is also great cover. Only "I Just Died In Your Arms" and "In The Air Tonight" are little let down.
