Viola's second album, enjoy!
From the wistfully soothing acoustic romanticism to the skywards
rising sad sounds placed on electronic beats synchronized with your
heart, these songs are sent to save you from the world. This music has
been slowly flowing in your direction, you might have already fallen
in love? Like the sounds of distant singing stars these songs want
make you cry, just take them into the safety of your heart...
VIOLA surfaced into the real world from the depths of imagination
around the turn of the millennium, although smalltown boys Riku
(vocals, guitar) and Esa (bass) had already been making music together
for the most part of the previous decade. Anu (keyboards) fell from
the heavens into the band in the early 2000. At this point the courage
had been at last gathered and the stages were finally theirs - unsure
souls on little stages, but still... After the departure of the
original guitarist Ville they operated as a threepiece with all
-electronic rhythmbacking for couple of years, releasing "Only Pop
Music Can Break Your Heart" -CDR in 2001 and "Escapist Pioneers" -CDEP
in 2002 and performing here and there but mostly quite near of here.
Tommi (drums and percussion) arrived with the flugelhorn fanfares in
the late 2002 and completed the lineup bringing more dynamics and
general activity into this lazy hazy group. October 2003 saw the
release of a small but precious acoustic seven-inch single containing
the songs "Summermoon" and "Dreaming Of The Ultimate Girl" on If
Society and the debut album 'Tearcandy' was released in April 2004 to
a surprisingly large degree of approval from old friends and a few new
ones as well.
2004 was a busy Viola-year all around as not only did Viola manage to
give birth to its first born, 2004 was also a year of playing around
far more than before and a year of 3 releases as in the end of the
year 2 smaller releases saw the light of day: the split ep with fellow
popsters Iconcrash and a mistletoe-filled Christmas 7".
Even though 2005 saw Viola releasing not one, but two long play
releases (a remix-/electronic album Melancholydisco and the second
proper long play, Anything Can Stop Us), the biggest event was
probably the dramatic halving of the band to a duo, as Riku and Tommi
decided it's time for them to keep on keeping on by the two of them
- for better or worse.
Live on stage is where the magic happens. Whether playing full
electric sets with electronic equipment or stripped-down electric sets
for smaller PA or fully acoustic shows mostly with violin, VIOLA wants
to give something special and lasting. During their numerous
performances never has a same set occured twice and all special shows
and cover songs will be performed only once. Come and find us - we are
destined to meet.
NOTES: Track 08 ends like that on the original CD too.
