Maaseudun Tulaivaisuus- Periferia


As most info on this band is in Finnish there's fairly little I can tell you about them. The record was released and recorded in Finland in 1988 on Hiljaiset Levyt records (HIKI-002), who also released such bands as Terveet Kadet and God's Lonely Men. Juissi Vainiola plays guitar, bass and sings, Jouni Nieminen also switches off on bass and guitar and Jaakko Uusisalo plays drums. The band also released two 7"s in 1987 called Agrikulture and Adventtilaulu and another lp in 1989 called Kylmaoja, all also on Hiljaiset Levyt.
Their sound may be best described as a precursor to contemporary bands such as Masshysteri, the Vicious and Gorilla Angreb, minus the female vocals. Gnarly, snotty post-punk with uber reverby, surfy guitars.
