Reflexion is a Gothic Rock/Metal band from Oulu, Finland.
First “rehearsals”
In the year 1996, three young guys were practicing hard and performing to the empty walls in their rehearsal place. They were blowing off their own hard rock oriented guitar riffs and also playing stuff from AC/DC, Metallica etc. During the time they were going on without vocalist. And also without any clue that behind the walls was something, or actually someone who could fill up the gap. Young guy called Juha Kylmänen was practicing in the next room and listened to these guys playing. He really adored them and the first thing, which came to his mind, was that he must get to their band. He sang his own melodies over their riffs and just waited for the right moment to get to know these guys. Everything that Juha had learned through his brother from such bands like Deep Purple and Whitesnake haven’t gone down the drain.
Gotta get some action!
So Kylmänen joined the band and soon they were ready to hit the studio for the recordings of their first demo tape. Nothing radical did not happened yet and most of the copies were sold hand-to-hand to their friends etc. During the times they played many great gigs and gained much success in their hometown Oulu. Years came by and couple of other demo tapes was also recorded during these years. With quality varying from harsh homemade productions to tight and hard rocking material. And the latter ones also paid attention of some record companies. But the negotiations did not yet lead to any further collaboration. Musical expression and the skills of the band were developing radically all the time.

well, let's keep it on metal. i've always associated love metal with HIM so... i would say it can be gothic metal because of the sad melodies sometimes.. but it's just Reflexion!
