Punkfest in Aijala, Middle of Nowhere, Finland
We came for one evening only, and experienced the following bands:
- Haittaääni https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tWx4XP5MAc
- Valse Triste (can find on youtube, they’re old)
- Valelääkärin vastaanotto
- Lutkajumala (not really a band) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LN13EBsBPoI
- 8 Bits High https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2WVbyEk7ug
of which Valelääkärin vastaanotto was clearly the best. Crisp, hard, heartfelt, sufficiently precise. There are different ways to scream your lyrics and they do it better. I could not find any video or audio of them online, but they do have an Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/valelaakarinvastaanotto
Ig we should have staid for Oi Polloi which seem to be legendary in the Finnish punk scene but my driver wanted home.
I also experienced kilju (scream) for the first time in my life, a deceptively strong homemade beverage from nothing but yeast and sugar and water.
There was also a characteristic trailer sauna but we skipped that.
We had a lot of fun. Thanks, and again next year.
