Some in the Finnish music press think they could be the
saviours of rock'n'roll. Whether they are or not is anyone's
guess. Räjäyttäjät means the Detonators... and they are more
likely to explode everything they touch. In two years they have
gone from an audience of six, and self-released cassettes, to
playing big festivals and their first officially released album
in Finland. With Rock Siltanen on bass, Villisika on guitar,
and Baddad Reed on drums, the original rhythm and blues plans
for the group were swept away in a manic orgy of blood, sweat,
and rock'n'roll. In Finland we have come to call this music
Raja'n'roll. You might hear some Stooges, MC5 and classic
garage stuff in there, along with Faust, Dr. Feelgood, ZZ Top,
and the odd surprise attack of The Fall. Another big influence
comes from 80s northern rock bands like Radiopuhelimet and
Jolly Jumpers, but mostly they are infl uenced by a Finnish
form of rock from the 70s called Jyta. and bands like Sleepy
Sleepers, Popeda and last, but especially not least, the
Hurriganes. This record is Raja'n'roll Explanations explode
before you can describe this, and don't worry if you don'tunderstand what the lyrics are about... They're all nonsense, just like the greatest rock songs! TUTTI FRUTTI & RAYALUJA.
