COMMOTION
The new album is ready and finished – it’s entitled COMMOTION. It includes nine new originals and cover of Ike & Tina Turner’s “Young and Dumb”. Release date (and everything related to it) is still TBA. We’re doing a couple of gigs in September in Tampere and Helsinki. Check out gigs!

Back from the Grave!
Finally our upcoming third album is recorded and ready for the mixing – yeah, it only took one year in the K-overdrive studio but we found the way out... There are two brand new songs (Like Stormy Weather & You Better Sit Down) to check out at myspace.com/slideshaker. At this moment it's too early to say when the album is coming out so enjoy those two rough mixes!

Working like a lazy dog
We are still working in the studio. This time it takes time... a lot
more than we expected. The working title for the upcoming third album
is "Like Stormy Weather". Among new tracks are Bad Moon, Return of the
Vicious Man, Deadly Snakes, Killing Country, She, You Better Sit Down,
Whole World in Your Hands, Sweet Companion and several others. We
propably won't do gigs before the album is ready... so you'll see us
around 2015.

New stuff & gigs
Just wanted to let you know that we have done lots of demo recordings for the new songs and we are very excited. We have around 10-12 new songs at the moment and more is on its way. It seems that new stuff is going to be more varied and experimental than In The Raw... and the tone is darker.

We're planning to start to record the upcoming album very soon but it's too early to quess when it comes out. We are not going to do many gigs in the near future 'cause we want to concentrate on the new material but there are two gigs in near future: 24.03.2007 HELSINKI, Club Liberte (Club Rouhimo) w/ Knucklebone Oscar & Jeffrey James And The Idiots 12.04.2007 KUOPIO, Henry's Pub w/ Sweet Moses

Cheers, JK

Home Sweet Home!
We are back from the tour in Germany, The Netherlands & Denmark. We want to thank all the people who came to see us play and helped us in anyway. Although we had our share of incidents (the van broke down and we ate at Cupido's) it was whole lotta fun! Great gigs and nice people!

And of course massive thanks to our touring buddies Sweatmaster who kicked the town every night, our mixing guy Pentti Dassum who made us sound good and merchandise seller Sami Wünderboy. We salute you!

See you again soon!

No, we are not dead. Not even retired. We’ve been working on new material for the upcoming second album. At the moment we got about 60 minutes of rock-n-roll on the tape so everything’s looking good. It's better to not set any dates but it's coming.

There’re no gigs in Finland in the near future but we're doing a couple of gigs in Estonia on the 18th & 19th of March.
