Band history

The 9 April 2008 they released the new album “Irrallaan”. This Album has been produced by the Ville eldest brother, Jonne Aaron, better known as leader of the band “Negative”. The debut album of the band “Kuvastin” was released in 2006 and reached the 17th place in the official Finnish hit parade. The singles from the album, “Liikaa” and “Tuulet” respectively reached the 2nd and 3rd place in the singles hit parade. In Spring 2007 there was a change in the line-up, leaving from the original group formation only the co-founder and front man Ville. Commenting the scission, Ville states that ‘’that formation arrived to a point where there was no other choice than splitting. The former band components wanted to do other things. Despite the changes inside the band, fans have remained faithful. Feedback up to now has been positive”. In the beginning, they have been accused of emulating the success of Negative, only because Ville is the younger brother of Jonne Aaron. Ambitious and laborious, the new formation has own projects and own objectives and the band hopes to see new people and to see them at their concerts. The Flinch sing their songs in Finnish. The first single “Taivas Tähtiverhoineen” has already been aired on the radio. The second one named “1986” is included in the album “Irrallaan” that includes 10 rock tracks.
