Is this Tampere-based band going to be the next big export thing in Finnish music scene? At least there's no doubt that Negative has what it takes to follow HIM, The Rasmus and Nightwish on the path to global success: catchy songs, a brilliant frontman and an enviable load of genuine rock'n'roll attitude.
Negative's career got a head start in 2003 with the release of their debut album War of Love. Next year's follower, Sweet and Deceitful, proved that the now six-member band was anything but a passing fad. This is a band charismatic enough to fill not only the Main Stage with their presence, but every nook and cranny of the entire festival ground.
