One of the most successful Finnish rock acts Negative released their fourth album “Karma Killer” in Finland and Scandinavia on May 7th and in Japan on May 21st 2008. With the previous three albums Negative have topped the Finnish album- and singles charts and toured around the world playing hundreds of shows in Europe, Japan, China and Russia. At the end of 2007 the band was voted the best Finnish act in MTV’s Video Music Awards, once again showing the size and dedication of their fanbase. In January 2008 Negative released “In The Eye Of The Hurricane”, a double-disc DVD covering their career so far. The DVD has achieved gold sales in Finland.
“Won’t Let Go” is the first single from the new album, showcasing the band’s natural progress: there are fresh elements in the mix, but the song still sounds like Negative – hard edge combined with beautiful melodies. Since hitting the radios Won't Let Go has spent over 10 weeks in the top5 of Finnish radio charts, and the next single Giving Up! Is climbing up the charts already. On the week of its release Karma Killer went to No.3 on the official album chart and has spent 7 weeks on the chart to date.
Before the studio sessions for Karma Killer started, Negative parted ways with its longtime guitar player, Sir Christus. Negative will continue as a five-piece with their friend Gary handling the duties of a live guitarist. “I’ve known the guys for about seven years, played at the same gigs with them with my own band etc., so when Negative was in need of a guitar player, Antti (NGT’s bass player) asked me to come up and try out with them, as they thought that I could fit into the band pretty nicely. Everything’s gone well so far, the mood inside the band is great and it just feel natural”, says Gary. The album was produced by Mikko Karmila who has previously worked with Finnish heavyweights Nightwish and Children Of Bodom.
