With their debut „Out Of The Dark“ (2006), Finland’s dark rock crew Reflexion successfully managed to spread their infectious sound virus. Via their brand new album „Dead To The Past, Blind For Tomorrow“, Juha Kylmänen (vocals), Mikko Uusimaa (bass), Ilkka Jolma (guitar), Raymond Pohjola (drums), and Juhani Heikka (guitar) now passionately continue to conquest our ears. A long experience and remarkable song writing amalgamate with typical Finnish melancholy which results in an exciting listening adventure. The band’s early loves to acts like Metallica, Whitesnake, and AC/DC provides a fierily rocking kick throughout the tracks whilst Kylmänen showcase his varied vocals between bittersweet toughness and wistfulness. The outcome ensnares gothic people as much as alternative, pop or metal music listeners. Produced by Aksu Hanttu (Entwine), the menu was recorded in three different cities in Finland: Oulu, Lahti and Helsinki. The first session took place in March 2007, the second followed in August. Vesa Ranta (ex Sentenced) meanwhile took care of the visual realization and created the suitable artwork for the fervent album which lyrically offers themes about daily life occurrences, spiced with black humor and self-irony. After unleashing the crunchy online single „Weak And Tired“ in January, it’s now time for further guitar power, melodies, glamour and emotions: „Dead To The Past, Blind For Tomorrow“.
