LUNA KILLS are without a doubt the most refreshing modern metal act in the scene, combining alternative and nu-metal vibes with electronics inspired by game soundtracks. Their frontwoman Lotta with her jazz singing background and incredible fry scream vocals brings the audience to their knees – unless they are speeding around in moshpits, as often witnessed in their fiery live shows. Even as newcomers LUNA KILLS have already opened the door to their beloved gaming world as their music is featured in the hit mobile app Beatstar. The band, first formed in 2019, has now taken their first steps on European stages, gained the attention of multiple rock radios in their native Finland and are moving towards even bigger stages after their successful debut album DEATHMATCH via SharpTone Records.
LUNA KILLS is:
Lotta Ruutiainen – Vocals
Samuli Paasineva – Guitar
Jimi Kinnunen – Drums
Lassi Peltonen – Bass
