Best Finnish Rock Bands

I love Nightwish. I have loved Nightwish since I was 6 years old. They are definitely the best band out there. Not only is their music astounding, but their lyrics are out-of-this-world. I think their best album is Dark Passion Play, because it is so dark and deep. I'm not a person who listened to Nightwish's new album, Endless Forms Most Beautiful, and said, "They sound interesting." I've been with them since Dark Passion Play and I love their songs like Romanticide, The Greatest Show on Earth, and Eramajarvi. I love them so much that I can sing song such as Eramaan Viimeinen, and I don't know the language of Finnish. Nightwish deserves the top spot in anything they do, and Tuomas should totally be the best songwriter ever. Saying Nightwish is terrific is the understatement of the century.
I have been a fan of classic and hard rock most of my life (Ok, I still love ABBA) and hearing the two fused together so naturally is astounding. Love it so much we are going to name our speed boat "Nightwish" when it is finished. Tuomas is a musician's musician. Love the older material but Story Time would be number one at present. The melody and lyrics would be perfect for a movie
Script I have... Darn they bet me to it.
When it comes to total music experience there is Nightwish and after that...Nightwish alone.
Tuomas is just a genius. The Poet ^^ The Pendulum and Ghost Love Score are one of the best songs that gave me the chills. The first band I ever heard in my life that made a coherent mix between symphony and metal.

HIM does have the power to heal, as I found out for myself over 7 years ago. Besides being a lovely group of fellows, they are ultra-talented and serious about their musical pursuits. HIM is a gift from the universe. THE BEST BAND!
Ville has one of the most amazing voices I have ever hear! I was in love with this band from the first time I hear their music and long before I knew what they looked like, now that I've seen these guys live I'm even more in love with the music
You have to love this band, this man! Ville is charming and talented. And if you really want to find something that is typical for Finland, you can find it all in this band. And try not to love his laugh.
They are the best band ever! they are the biggest band in Finland and they have a very long career with seven albums all of them really amazing!

Good old kind of heavy rock with new ingredients.
Metal (Melodic Death Metal to be precise) is not the same as rock

Apocalyptica is my second best band my number one band is Poets Of The Fall and I'm wondering why it's not on the list?

I love kalmah

Excellent, excellent band! These guys rock!

A long-term favourite band of mine. They're experimental, deep and original. There's little more that needs to be said.
I disagree with anyone claiming they are even minutely similar to HIM.
I love them since I was 15.I'm 26 now. They are different on every album but they are still good. Its one love, one life...
My favourite best of best! Forever.

If you're looking for some soulful music, beautiful wordplay and some mesmerising instrumentation, then this is the band you should check out. These poets are FAR better than their American, mainstream counterparts. Some songs are pure genius, and a few can haunt you (this goes for the music videos of a few too). And the best thing is that each song delivers something new, be it in terms of lyrics and/or in terms of the music! And of course, you have Maarko's brilliant vocals! An amazing band indeed!
POTF is one of the most underrated bands ever. They are very unique and they have songs of various genres. Marko's voice can not be challenged.
This is one of the most amazing bands in the history of music... They have done some unbeatable work like Lift, Carnival Of Rust and Cradled In Love... POTF fan forever
Poets of the Fall is one of my favorite bands of all time and I live in the United States of America... Rock on!


Amorphis rules! They've been going in for almost 20 years and they're still going strong and their albums just keep selling and so on. They are by far the best band in Finland and one of the top five bands in the world.
Kalmah receiving more votes than this band is ridiculous.
Best melodic metal band ever heard!
The 1981-84 version is the first and so far the only true rock band to come out of Finland. Goes to show how out of touch with reality some people are when crap like Poets of the Fall gets ranked higher..

The best band ever! I have loved them from the first time I heard their songs!
They won eurovision song contest 2006.
Just a great band, great songs, great costumes, great performances, great effects. They wera heavy monster costumes and they can still rock the audience out. I just love them. COME ON LORDI FANS

About all I listen to anymore... Love them!
I love their music. This is a cool band!
Even though h.I.m. rules the world. The 69 should be #2 and #3 should be negative. All you people that voted for the other 16 bands need to wake up. Helsinki vamp 4 life.
Peter than eighteenth.
