Supersu
The song is about the rampant populism in Finland and its side effects, including hate speech and other forms of harassment by adults on the internet.In Finland, the phenomenon is associated with a right-wing populist party, to which the song's title kind of refers: Pienet vihreät feministit...

Isän päivät - Days Of A Father
Kun viimein pääsit täältä pois livahtamaan nukahdin uneen niin helpottavaan eikä sillä ensimmäisellä hetkellä ja viimeisellä ilman suojamuureja ollut enää syitä, ei syytöksiä meistä kumpainenkin olisi vapaa huomenna Vielä kerran näin sinun itkevän ja käsistäsi pitelin jälkeen lapsuuden tyhjinä...

Hiipuma - Fadescence
Songs from the World ending No. 16. First track after couple of years of procrastination: same s##t, different day.
-
September
Kuljen itseni muistoksi sinussa, tunnen itseni muistona näen elämäsi minusta vapaana, vapautettuna Katselen, kuinka kävelet hiljaa elämämme muistolehdossa sisälläsi kaipausta, koleaa, syysillan kultaa viileää Elämänpuuni koivu, lehdetö, kitukasvuinen mieleni sää harmaa, lokakuinen, hyinen,...

Korkein oikeus
Old song, from 2008. Digging the archives and finding some gems. Some of them are black like this. Black and pure. Hate, that's it. Sinä sotket ja meuhkaat ympäriinsä ja kun osut, sulkeudut hiljaisuuteen ja odottelet itseksesi, että joku toinen tulee tulee ja halaa ja haihduttaa pahan olon pois...
-
Early demos 1: Liki
Back in the day 2006: just practising digital recording and playing. But as a pop/rock composition this remains on of my very best. One of the most personal and open lyrics I've managed to write: A song of the process of falling in love and into a relationship and as an indication of the shadow…

Musta uni / Sinulle jota en enää tunne
Rantaudun niemelle nimettömän, utuun kun aikani kietoutuu antaudun tapahtuvan virrasta, huudoista, katseista kuohuvan tutustuakseni maisemaan joka solisee hiljaisuuteen sivelläkseni silokallion pintaa riimuista itkeneen Eletty elämä häviä ei vaikka se itseään pakenee Hetket kun hetkiin…

Musta Joutsen 3 / The Black Swan
Ei tullut kesää ollenkaan, ei oikein kevättäkään ei mitään mikä helpottaisi jälkeen talven ankaran aurinko kylmä, etäinen, päivät hukkuvat himmeään liukenevat musteisina pisaroina hämärään Poluilla, metsäteillä ei raatonakaan selviä kauhujen kulkureiteillä kulkee vain kuolema toraisaa viljaa...

50 - verse 17082023
This is mixing from August 2023. There were some awful compression bugs in the firs verse. Niin muutuin muistoksi sinussa, ajatukseksi ajassa näen elämäsi minusta vapaana, vapautettuna katselen kuinka kävelet hiljaa elämämme muistolehdoissa kasvoillasi kaipausta koleaa, syysillan kultaa viileää...

Dance Of The Redundance
Voin jäljittää kaavaa joka johtaa neljänteen ulottuvuuteen menneeseen ja tulevaan aineen sisään Planckin vakion väleihin Voin kirjoittaa luvun joka suurempi on kuin maailmankaikkeuden atomien määrä ja uskotella: muistan, siis ymmärrän sen Elämä on kolmen kappaleen ongelma potenssiin tuntematon ja...

Morgoth 6
Huomenta vaan, sosiopsykopaatti moikkaa harhojaan unissaan raapustettu satumaa toimii karttanaan tulevaan Siis tehokkaimmat koneet louhimaan tiedon sijaan kryptovaluuttaa tietoisuuden liete vain liukastaa globaalia öyhömediaa Ihmiskunta horjuu kohti epävakautta enää mustaa ei voi selittää pois...
-
Itseiskunta - Antisociety
Tämä maa on syöksymässä todella pahaan jamaan velanotollaan sukupuolettomilla liikennemerkeillään, ihme hyysäämisillään siitä vastuussa ovat kommunistit kuun pimeältä puolelta naiset kiljuvaiset niitä kanniskelevat käsilaukuissaan Ratkaisu on helppo, itsestään selvä, täydellinen kuin mies...
-
Suuri Aika 1
Muistan alkuhetken laaksoon Norjan tunturien ukkospilvet aurinko kannoillaan toivat kesän ja kirkkauden auringonkilo pakotti meidät aina vain vaatteita vähentämään välillämme ajatus sanaton jo ilman rihman kiertämää Emme aivan eksyneet sumussa jonka läpi kuullut ei askeliaan jyrkänteen reunalle...

Sausage Song
Perjantai-ilta, kotiuduin rintamilta kulmain alta kurkistelin sotasaalis tuntui jälleen painavalta valintojani punniskelin Valinnanvapaus vai sittenkin valinnan valta tuskissani pinnistelin vastaukset tungetteli tiskin alta supermarketissa harhailin Päättäväisyys sydämestä haihtui pois ei se...

Psychophiles Are Coming!
Katse lipoo maisemaa kaiken skannaa gammasäteillään halkaisee vuoret ja kukkulat todellisuuden saranat meren taivaaseen karkottaa tuliaavikoiksi erämaat sen nälkää ei voi sammuttaa pala palalta nakertaa Ei elämä lopu sittenkään merenpohjalla odottaa vaikka ikuisesti ei huomaa aikaa kuluvaa tilaa…

Wrong Life - Väärä elämä
Jo lapsena halusin kohottaa tähtitaivaan helmaa kutsuvaa kiven, hehkuvan hiilen sisään kurkistaa nuotioon, syvyyteen Olen jyrkänteen reunaa kävellyt pikkukiviä alas potkiskellut vuoren huippua vilkuillut syrjäkarein, vaivihkaa Haasteista pienimmänkin edellä olen pakoon pyrkinyt en saavuttanut...

Freedorm Of Speech - Vapaus?
Maailmanlopun laulut 5: Vapaus? Vapauden puolesta huutaa heiluttaa suurta luutaa lakaisee pois tieltä nuo jotka eri mieltä Vapautta luovuta emme puolesta sen taistelemme puolesta vapauden maamme silmämme ummistakaamme Kreikasta Espanjaan, Portugaliin, Indiran Intiaan Argentiinasta Brasiliaan,...

Greta
To the deep end - The root of all evil. Slava Ukraini (and for all those who oppose). Greta Tuli isä, pyhä henki pinnalle Äiti Maan siementäen neitsyenkin miehisellä kunnollaan Nainen vaietkoon seurakunnassaan paitsi naisista ne jotka käskevät vaikenemaan Tahdon virta alkoi myllynkiveä pyörittää...

Musta tähti / Black star
Musta tähti Pyhä Henki tai Perkele, tule minuun toistamiseen anna nokkani iskeä vielä jyvään kultaiseen olen se poika, olen se, joka uskoi mahdottomaan olen se, jonka lapsena sait itseensä uskomaan Siis: Oli poltettava sillat, koti sijoilleen nollatakseni jähmettyneen tilanteen jotta tulevaisuus...

Suurelle Ankeudelle
2 / 101. For The Great Bleakness / Suurelle ankeudelle Minusta ei sitten tullutkaan vallankumousjohtajaa ei Koskelasta Corgania, Yrjänän korvaajaa korkeushyppyura aikoinaan piirun verran matalaksi jäi kirjailijauran huippuhetket summautuvat tässä näin Kauko Röyhkän tavoin nostatan maljan Suurelle...

Iltatähti
1/101 – Evening Star / Iltatähti First piece from the 101-piece cluster of songs called Maailmanlopun laulut, Songs From The End Of The World. All the lyrics, compositions and arrangements are ready, prepared during last two years. Next on, I will record them all, song by song, during some couple...
-
Bloodwind - Verituuli
It's been a little while. I decided to write a song that's me, with horns & halos, just doing what I do naturally. So, here you are - 17 + minutes of PAATOS. The name is Bloodwind. A song about the shadow of a man, sort of. Vuodet aukeavat kierteeltään ajan purkaessa verkkoaan vuodesta toiseen ja...
-
Metsä
A Forest. Hopefully my last effort with this decayed, snap-crackle-pop, ten years old computer & out-of-date equipment. And maybe I should get my over aged ESP maintained for a first time. And change the strings...learn to play and sing. Oh, so much to do, so short a life. Askelin raskain...
-
The Bothnian Bay / Perämeri
Ok. A bunch of new songs is there to be recorded, actually mere one hundred of them. Will took a while...at this pace. Anyway, the first one is extremely typical Me, in good and in bad. Long, scrappy, cheesy, bombastic sprawl full of guitars. And with too many words, this time something of the...
-
Atlas
An attempt to make a simple, straightforward rock song with simple, openminded lyrics with no any kind of "deeper meaning" of symbolicism. Not an easy task when you are not having any trust in the idea of the lyrics or the song as a whole: Ajatukset alipalkatulla lukossa lyijynraskas on palaveri...
-
Kävelijä / The Walker REMIX 13.8.2026
It started some 100 000 years ago, somewhere in the great plains of Tanzania.... Lets just put the lyrics here: Voiko aamun valo vielä kannatella toivoa nousta tuuli tasangolta ilman pelon tuoksua voiko käsi joka käskee vielä joskus silittää kylvää kuoleman sijasta vielä kerran elämää Tansanian...
-
The God Delusion
Basically, this song is just another oh-so-serious sermon in the form of guitar rock which I tried to lighten up with some musical tricks here and there. Human nature is the one of deifying, to worship, to adore, to glorify. If it's not one of the millions of gods, it's ism, football, money,...
-
Jalokivi
Another attempt of making a simple pop song (almost) without guitars. Thus being, there are only less than two minutes of useless drifting guitar interlude played by my old Gibson The Paul, with strings so high up that it makes it difficult to play at all. Why? Because it's there.
-
Palatsien palatsi
After almost 2 years of hiatus, a new song. Needed to take a break of this songwriting habit for it had become merely a burden, not a relief. I also tried to find some new angles to my guitar playing and writing. I did not find anything, learn anything. So, there's nothing new here This is just me.
-
Spring at the Lowlands
Deteriorated and destroyed nature: forests and mires turned into fields extending endlessly in the flat landscape, poaching, uncommunacative people... the Ostrobothnian region, my home. I don't know if the farmers here believe in the future or not but it certainly seems like not: The life is all...
-
Nature Is The Mirror Of A Man - Petoviha
One's fear of wilderness equals the fear of his/her own subconsciousness. What a man finds in the nature, what he/she loves, hates, fears, tries to tame or worship is the very nature of the man itself, deep state of mind, the one which has developed by and with the nature in the course of the...
-
Inherit The Wind - Tuuleen kylväjät
Free will is the wrath of humankind leading us fighting against entropy, against evolution. Chaos is the true nature of life and the greatest fear of this "Free will", which basically is just a slavedriver inside of every man. Typical topic of a pop hit, for sure.
-
Godwana
A song about dementia, as told by the person who's experiencing the disintegration of one's own past, present and future. Also a love story. "The things I will forget shall I forgive". Not a fiction at all. The deepest and most personal song I've ever made, albeit I am not the storyteller in…
more -
Valon vaakuna - Shield Of Light
Most of my songs are based on the most typical pop chord progressions. The one heavily used by myself is the 'a - F - C - G'. But I have never used the dull F - G - a -progression in chorus, until now. (I have always loved the 80's heavy metal acts like the mighty Judas Priest). There's no other...
-
Chorus
Basically this track describes the destructive, all-consuming and -conquering nature of the western civilisation which will not reach its end until the very end of the the fossil energy supplies and breaking point of the biosphere's carrying capacity. The stock markets will be thriving even on…

Sielunmessu / A Requiem For Myself
First song considering primarily myself. This song is not meant to be listenable at first hand but merely just honest - musically and lyrically: overblown, extremes really far from one another, too slow, too fast, too long, too raw and too cheesy. Deep shadows & brilliant highlights (like this...
-
Ero
My attempt to make just short and simple rock song. For some reason, these kind of songs have always been difficult for me to accomplish. This time I even managed to cut the guitar-solo-kind-of-thing in under 20 seconds. The lyrics are another view into the distorted relationship...sort of. I had...
-
Olla
Another one dealing with middle age crisis & fatherhood & fragile mind trying to find peace. The name, Olla = To be. I would've liked to use title "We're here because we're here" but in the case someone of my few listeners is familiar with Anathema, I just humourlessly want to avoid giving an...
-
Ja sinä vastasit taivaan korkeuksista
"There never was much hope. Just a fool's hope..." To hang on to a fool's hope and survive. Suddenly being aware that I'm still alive and well, after twenty years of ravishing grimness of my life reaching it's end in the next day, month, year...and especially of what happened after that realization.
-
The Scenery
My personal view of the relationship of mankind and the nature. Relationship of destruction, humiliation, exploitation - and ephemeral nature of that all. Musically...I just wonder, again, why the heck am I doing these monuments. They can be really difficult to listen to - even being properly...
-
The Firebearer
The references of this particular song? - Cheese. Yö. Joutsenlaulu. Me, being father of 6 years old boy, telling some sentimental, pathetic words of wisdom wishdom, fishdom. The purpose was good, though. I had a working title for the song: "While my guitar no-so-gently weeps" referring…
more -
Odotan?! - i'll...Wait?
An attempt to make "compact, simple rock song". Just two chord progressions in time of 3:14! Only for you, my friend! Just self-examination of typical anxious Finnish man. Nothing too special.

Kiitotien päässä (on taivaassa reikä) - At The End Of The Runway
Fundamentalism - be it the extremist branch of Islam or Christianity, or the real fundamental religion of our time, The Market Totalitarialism of The Disaster Capitalism - is basically consequence of human psyche, which is speeding up. And like it's sung in a certain Finnish song (of a totally...
-
Kaunisharju
Of giving in & rising up & settling down. Including musical citations to Kent, the best pop group of our time (in the form of bass line somewhere in the middle of the song) and to the late Sentenced, the grand masters of Finnish melancholy, ahistus ouluensis (the final section).

Bipolarity
It has been said that man found God when he became aware of his own thoughts, thus being able (and forced) to listen "the inner voice" of himself, but not realizing that the voice he was hearing is not some external subject...

How to stand against superior power. I'm not religious person at all. But there is a great lesson of courageous, resistance and surpassing in those biblical lores concerning Jesus.
