Ollaan tämmönen aika normi bändi Suomen maalta

Apina on oululainen rap- ja metallimusiikkia yhdistävä bändi. Yhtyeen tavaramerkkejä ovat kantaaottava sanoma ja vaikutteet useista musiikin erilaisista tyylilajeista. Yhtye perustettiin kesällä 2010. Bändi valittiin Infernon ja Soundin kuukauden demobändiksi keväällä 2012. 

Apinasta sanottua: 
"Virallisesti aamu alkoi A:lla ja Apina-yhtyeen Oulu-lavan setillä. Bändi keräsi keväällä kuukauden demo -maininnan niin Soundissa kuin Infernossakin. ”Hypeen” on uskominen, sillä Apina saa suomenkielisen rap-metallin toimimaan paljon paremmin kuin voisi kuvitella. Oulun lapsenkasvoinen Rage Against The Machine tulee vastaisuudessa löytämään itsensä isommilta lavoilta."
- Soundi QStock-arviossa 

"Apina laittaa pasmat sekaisin. -- Nu-metal soi modernin raskaasti, ja bändi on sävellyksissään varsin tyylitajuinen."
- Inferno 1/2012 Kuukauden demobändi 

Jäsenet:
Henri Pesonen (rap, laulu)
Tuomas Alfthan (kitara, ohjelmointi) 
Aake Lämsä (basso, laulu)
Leo Heikkilä (rummut)

The Famous Nobodies Forever Almost There

Take a couple of windmilled powerchords, add the dynamics of Television and the stomp of Young with The Horse, lace the mess with supersonic pop-sophistication of The Hüskers and the musical knowledge of The Clash. Front the lot with singer-songwriter attitude not unlike Springsteen´s or Westerberg´s and you pretty much get the idea where the band is coming from. More interesting question is: where on earth are they heading?

Ruotomieli started in 1999 in Haukipudas, way out in the sticks. They were loud, musically stubborn and spiritually psychedelic from the get-go. Once the band achieved its steady position with one foot in the door and one firmly in the gutter, that´s where you´ll find them today: out in the streets trying to get in – or vice versa.

The band´s songs rave and stutter about love, hate, freedom, growing & f*cking up, need & excess, the struggle for meaningful existence in a world gone wacko, wet rock & roll dreams and the cost of all of the mentioned. Classic rock & roll topics, and those are always topical. The extra kick is the thought and effortt put into the songwriting.

For a stage act, Ruotomieli is pretty explosive one. When one is very aware of the possibility of NOT making it, NOT going all the way – whatever that means – is NOT even an option. This kamikaze-dedication to their muse comes well across in the music, especially live.

In a world that is trying its darnest to bring down rock & roll, where everyhting has a price tag on it, where TV and radio exist no more, Ruotomieli – the famous nobodies – believe the reasons to give up are wearing thin. Now, more than ever we need bands rocking for common good. This band´s racket is a means to ease the pains of this mixed-up shook-up world – theirs included.

Rock & roll is here to stay and fight for the things worth fighting for and speak the lost and nearly-forbidden language of explosive self-expression known as ROCK & ROLL.

Bad Reputation are punk rock band from Oulu, Finland.
