Featured Artist : Kemialliset Ystävät


Kemialliset Ystävät is psychedelic folk band from Finland. Following the Finish theme of the week Kemialliset Ystävät represents the general style of the Finish music scene, somewhat enjoyable and at the same time delirious noise interpretations that still hold folk styling at their root. The end result is a very enigmatic music genre that Finland is famous for. Kemialliset Ystävät has released several albums since they formed in 1995, each particular album defining its own style of experimentation. The band itself is somewhat ambiguous because the group members are ever changing many are parts of the Fonal Label, which itself is the label for Kemialliset Ystävät. Their collaborations include work with Islaja and Avarisl, which are other bands played for our Finish show this week.
