History & Biography
The band was founded with a different singer in 2017. It professed to black metal. 2018 Demo was first. Bassist Ari left and Ville switched over from guitar. The Finland-based black metallers signed to Italian label Time To Kill Records for the release of the first album Unohdan Sinut in 2021. Following its debut album Unohdan Sinut of 2021, Finland-based boys were releasing a second album, called Syvä Hiljaisuus, through Time To Kill Records in March 2023. The label also released the debut record on CD in a DVD digipack case format to begin 2024. It had released it originally on vinyl and cassette. Two May gigs were cancelled when drummer Henri was taken ill in 2024. The band did open several gigs for Havukruunu and Afsky in Finland however.

The band calls itself Finnish Black Metal Punks Against Fascism. The band’s monicker is taken from the verb for ‘torture’ in German, namely ‘quälen.’
