Face of God, just a great entertainment!



Face of God is producing magic at the moment in their live shows. They provide music that the audience can feel and guide them with a more and more improving sound through the gigs. Last week Saturday 22.09.2012 Face of God played in Vintti a culture house in Töölö, Helsinki. The place was quite small but really nice and people loved the guys so much that it was impossible for the next artists to enter the stage, because Face of God was playing one after another encore. New songs like "Black in the night" and "Dance" were performed and showing up with a different style than the old songs from the Fire Ep, much better riffs and sounds, the guys learned a lot, in the just two years, they are around as an alternative rock band. We are all waiting till "Hoo myself" ,the brand new cover song from the Band Havana Black, will be finally performed live on the stage. 

After the brilliant show in Vintti, Face of God went on the Rockstone on the Road tour with Caroline and Strong Addiction to Lahti and Hämenlinna last week and the perfect final of that tour was staged yesterday night 29.09.2012 in the Green Room of Bar Bäkkäri. Five dynamic and young Helsinki bands were performing: Caroline, Guns of Glory, The Riot Soul, Face of God and Strong addiction. That night was very awesome with lot of good entertainment and music. From all the young Bands, Face of God showed upwith the most potential and that they are the right band that got picked for the Helldone Festival in December, that is staged in Tavastia, Helsinki. 

Not just Ville Valo loves the music from Face of God also Green Room was packed during the show from our alternative rock trio and rocked out. Comments like "Leo Stillman, are you the next Ville Valo" got shouted out load :) What could be a better compliment than this? Also in Bar Bäkkäri an encore of the audience was screamed out "We want more". Jeah, right we just can not get enough of you guys. Thank you so much for the brilliant show of yesterday night!!!

For everybody who is even more interested how the band life of Face of God looks like, check out the brand new "Hoo Myself" video. Lende cut a few best moments togehter ;)

FACE OF GOD goes HELLDONE

Greetings from training room, picture by Nina - Jasmin Korpi 

After a very successful gig in the old University house of Helsinki (vanha yliopistotalo) at 23.08.2012, the Show must go on... And it is!!! That Face of God is a very talent alternative rock/pop band that we all knew already since a while, but now also Ville Valo the singer of the love metal band HIM recognized our trio. Ville liked the music of Face of God so much that he was handpicking the band for opening the Helldone Festival this year on the mainstage of Tavastia, Helsinki´s famous rock club. This is a very big honor for Face of God. Leo Stillmann who is since childhood a big fan of the band HIM, was really emotional and couldn´t believe that his band was picked out of million others. Helldone is a festival that is organized by Ville Valo and is happening always over the New Year’s time. This year’s first day of the Festival will be the 28.12.2012 where Face of God will stay as first band on Tavastia´s stage and definitely dreams will come true. Tavastia is for every band a dream to play and lot of bands started their international career from this stage. Normally Helldone runs 4 days and the house is always sold out. 
Well done, Face of God!!!!
In this month Face of God will release the brilliant cover to Hoo myself from Havana Black. Also if the song is a cover, the own style of Face of God is recognizable and making the song very special. Hoo myself comes along with a great and strong guitar sound and will surprise many people who didn´t knew the band yet!!! The movie 3 Simoa is coming out on 14.09.2012 and we all remember the online competition where Face of God won and the song "Elephant" is the soundtrack of the movie that is coming to the cinemas this month. This week Thursday the guys from Face of God will also attend the official Movie Party. Busy days are coming and a few gigs outside of Helsinki are planned as well for this autumn. 

The next upcoming gigs are: 
29.9 @ Torvi, Lahti 
27.9 @ Suisto-Klubi, Hämeenlinna
28.9 @ Club Simo, Lieksa
29.9 @ Bar Bäkkäri, Helsinki
