FACE
OF GOD is an alternative rock band from Helsinki, Finland. The trio performed
more than 130 gigs in Finland in less than 2 years. From the cellars of
Helsinki they will show up at 28.12.2012 on the Helldone stage in Tavastia.
Ville Valo the singer of the love metal band HIM, who is organizing the
Helldone festival over New Year’s, chose FACE OF GOD as one of the first bands
to Helldone. Silke Yli-Sirniö, HIM`s promoter was convinced and impressed from
FACE OF GOD´s talent and recommend the rock trio to Ville.
Helldone
is a festival that is staged almost every year in the heart of Helsinki in
Tavastia, the most famous rock club. International audience is expected, people
from around the globe are traveling just for that specific event to Helsinki. A
New year’s festival with great acts is coming up. Together with FACE OF GOD
also other talented bands are supporting HIM: THE SKREPPERS, HELSINKI VAMPIRE
CLUB by DJ JYRKI69 and FINAL ASSAULT.
The
ticket sale of the festival is already over. On the 24th of
September the Helldone tickets sold out for all 4 days in less than 15 minutes.
Especially for FACE OF GOD it is a big honor to play first time on Tavastia´s
stage and that in front of a full house. “I still cannot believe that Ville
Valo chose us” says Leo Stillman frontman of FACE OF GOD. The popular rock trio
is excited about the gig and they are practicing hard to show on the final day
what a great band FACE OF GOD is.
One
more gig FACE OF GOD is staging before they open the Helldone festival. In the
club Liberte, Kallio, kolmas linja on the 23.11.2012 they will prove their
talent. FACE OF GOD is known for great live shows and a good sound. The band is
also working very hard in the studio. They are producing their first debut
album, which should be ready by spring 2013. The album will be a double
nonetheless, consisting of an electric (“Dead Ballads and Forgotten Love
Songs”) and an acoustic (“Illogical Psychology”) half. As well a new single
will be released at some point.
Who
is FACE OF GOD? Leo Stillman is the front man and guitarist of the band,
Benjamin Lehti is the talented bassist and Oscar Kuutso is the drummer. All
songs FACE OF GOD is producing are written by Leo Stillman. He is kind of a
talent in song writing, very inspired by life and text and melody are just
popping up without thinking much about it. FACE OF GOD is performing music that
comes from the heart and they are scratching many different genres without
being ashamed of it, to follow not just one style of music. A very open minded
band and talent as hell ready for the show on the big stage in Tavastia during
Helldone.
The
band is happy to give interviews and tell more about their experience. Please
