Biography
Karhula, Finland
The industrial area of Karhula, Finland, situated on the muddy banks of the river Kymi, has during the past few years witnessed a sudden rise of more and more intense bands, composed of bearded, lumberjack-like figures with broad shoulders. This bunch works like a Harvester machine fuelled by a keg of nitro, but instead of chainsaws their rugged hands are clutched around downtuned guitars. In the vein of the movie Deliverance these bellowing creatures from the river have often been conceived by this same bunch of people. The “Karhula-Scene” is now seen as a distinct underground phenomenon in certain circles.
One of these bands is Kaihoro , that released its debut in 2004. Recorded live at the studio in one day, the raw and heavy stoner rock of “Mainheadskull” received praising reviews. A handful of gigs played after the release showed that Kaihoro really can deliver their promises on stage.
Kaihoro was formed by Jaakko Heinonen and Lauri Pikka of Total Devastation . Neither one of them plays in Kaihoro, though. The band is composed of their friends, playing their favourite style of music: massive, epic and filthy metallic rock. Kaihoro is the house band of the Karhula scene, acting as a motor for their parties. Hidden from the eyes and ears of the larger public, Kaihoro is like an ugly hound locked in a backyard shed, unleashed only when proper racket is in order.
Some three years after the debuts release, Kaihoro is ready to set their second effort loose. Fittingly titled “ Boulder ”, it mostly deals with the forces of nature, before which man is completely humbled. When the last flaming boulder of doom falls from the sky, Kaihoro will be shifting their knobs in place and paying their respects to the might of nature.
