Post Description

Ruoska is a Finnish metal band from the Juva municipality.
Ruoska was formed in 2002, with some of the same members from the previous comical rock band 
Natsipaska. They released their debut album Kuori the same year. In 2005, Radium was released.
When they went back to the studio, Ruoska created a new unique sound that was represented by their 
new album, Amortem in 2006. The singles Mies yli Laidan and Alasin were turned into music videos.
The album itself debuted at sixth place in Finnish radio charts for almost 10 weeks. Ruoska's fifth album 
Rabies was released on April 9, 2008.
