FEATURES IN METAL FROM FINLAND BANDS
We currently have over 600 finnish Metal- and Rockbands listed in Metal From Finland. Surely there are many more out there and we are adding them all the time. However we don't add every band we come across. Our main focus is on signed bands and in bands that have released albums. But if we come across to an unsigned band we like, of course that band will be added as well. Quality is more important to us than quantity and therefore all the bands listed in Metal From Finland have enough information about them so we can make a decent file out of them. > View Bandlist here
