| BRIEF HISTORY: Kaivosurma was formed in summer 1998 by the brothers Kalle and Markku. We had done some ultra-primitive hardcore tapes back in 1986-1987 and over ten years later it suddenly seemed like a good idea to do some more of the same stuff again. To our surprise these new crude 4-track tapes actually sounded quite good and somehow it came to our minds that it would be a fun idea to let others hear this stuff too. So "Saatanan lampaat" 7"EP came out in 2000. After that we did some more tapes and released the second 7"EP "Bronstein" in 2001. For the most part the early songs were improvised while recording. Only some of the lyrics were written beforehand. We didn't practise or write the songs, just pressed [rec] and blasted away. Kaivosurma Mk II was born in 2003 as we hired Janne as a guitar player, and started practising and writing new songs. The days of improvisation were over and we started writing songs like any other band. Soon Mikko joined in as a drummer and we became a four-piece band. With this line-up we our first live gigs in 2006. In 2008 this line-up went on hiatus since we lost our rehearsal place and people living all around the country didn't help much either. For the last year and a half the focus has been on studio work and writing a shitload of new tunes. Some tracks from these 2008–2009 sessions can be heard at Kaivosurma Myspace page. In summer 2010 two German labels Hardware Records and Righteous Fuck Records released the third Kaivosurma 7"EP called Porttiteoria. This EP consists of demo recordings started way back in 2003 and finished in 2009. At the moment we're recording new material. The fourth EP is already half ready and coming out in early 2011. The live line-up will be re-activated when the time is right.
