The history of Suicide Legacy
During the fall of 2006 a single man was yearning for a good olí death
metal band. He had composed material and all he was lacking was a group of
great players around him. This man was called Mara by all. Then at one
evening he played something he had just recorded to his friend, Henkka, a
little man with big motherfucking mouth of bullets. It was that evening
when things started to turn... Henkka said immediately that he would want
to sing these songs and the two of them praised their pints in the air for
the mayhem to come.
Now Mara had a vocalist and himself playing one guitar but there was still
need for drummer, bass player and another guitarist. Together they hunted
down a great drummer Miikka, a friend of them both and a bandmate of
Henkkaís other band Antarktis Utopia. Henkka knew that Miikkaís battery
would be a perfect solution for this hellish group. The engangement was
easy and painless as Miikka started to learn more and more songs at the
same time Henkka was writing lyrics on them.
When there was no guitarist in sight Henkka took the other guitar in his
hands and promised to play and sing until another guitarist is found. This
took a little time and Mara sought a man in his mystic visions who would
play the bass in this league of extraordinary metallians. This man was
Tommi, an aggressive son of a bitch wielding his bass like it was only a
mere whore who had to be taught. No guestions asked, no wonderings left in
the air Tommi said yes to the call of Mara.
It didnít take long before they found another shocking guitarist. This man
was Antti, a massive monster handling any guitar he could get in to his
claws. Not only with a skill of destructive guitar playing Antti came with
the idea of band name. A name what would be known all over the land,
feared by many and honored by all. Suicide Legacy was born. Mara looked
around him and saw this great group of angry metalheads surrounding him. A
nasty smile appeared to his face... for this was the beginning of a great
reign!
At the the spring of 2007 Suicide Legacy recorded their first demo
and started to spread the havoc and malice at Musta Wappu
2007, Iltatähti, Lappeenranta. The reign has started...
