The story of Gravity Shield started at some point during the year 2004 when Mika Korhonen (guitar) and Jarno Eskelinen (bass at the time) decided to start playing some good music with each other. Soon after that Jarnos older brother Erno (guitar) noticed his opportunity to sneak into a group that somehow started to look like a band. Because this was a group that originates from a small village, the natural continuity was to “persuade” friends into it so that the whole band would come together. Soon Janne Huttunen was found sitting behind the drum kit. This line-up smashed songs that concentrated on covers for quite some time until it became apparent that the group badly needed a vocalist.

So Janne decided to be the singer, Jarno jumped behind the drums and Mikas younger brother Niko was found to play the bass (talk about small circles huh?) and so the band was complete. In the early days the band was called Centre of Eternity, which in its all glorious glimmer was nothing more than a mere rip-off from the Ozzy Osbourne song of the same name. Rumour has it that the guys once tried to play with synthesizers but that story ended before it even started. The band still played covers for some time until little by little ideas for own songs started to take shape. At this point we were living somewhere between years 2005 and 2006. The year 2006 was surprisingly busy time even though Erno spent his days in the army, the true work however started in the following year. When it became clear that the focus was being moved from covers to own material, the band decided to change its name for something a bit more original.

The band contest in which we participated is now over, we were in the finals but apparently our opinions about things are very different than the ones of the jury. Judges gave us feedback …
