Ruoska
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ruoska (Finnish for "whip" or "scourge") is a Finnish industrial metal band from the Juva municipality. They have been compared to the German band, Rammstein, in the era of Sehnsucht. This comparison is often made with their single, Darmstadt, from their Riisu album, most notably by Rammstein's own singer, Till Lindemann, in a Finnish magazine interview. One of the factors making them greatly stand out from those bands to those who listen to them, however, is singer Patrik Mennander's combination of low, growling speech (à la Lindemann) and conventional singing. The lyrics are exclusively in Finnish.
Mennander was a former member of fellow Finnish band Battlelore.
