All good music, emotions, girls, whiskey.. anything that turns us on.
Sounds Like
they are serious about it and that they just definitely ROCK!!!
Hell yeah, you read it right! A band called ROCK who live up to their name! A bunch of punks on the same spiritual level got together in 2007 to make music they had always wanted to do. Each of them is no newbie to music business which can be heard in the confidence of their music
So dear ladies & punks.. the time is now!!!
After countless nights at the local strip bar in Lappeenranta ROCK played their first show privately only to a group of striptease ladies. ROCK have been composing music from their personal lives and at the moment they are recording killer songs for all of you who like to rock, party & have a blast. It is all about the good emotions. Their music is a mix of different styles and if you survive the first shock, then we are gonna definitely have a party where YOU are invited..
Come and ROCK with 'em with maximum emotion! Rock yeah! Spread the word!!!
