VANITY INK from Helsinki got on people’s skin on 2007 with their first album On Your Skin. The second longplayer was released in 2009 through the Swedish label Swedmetal Records. “Don’t dream it, be it” say the Inkers. They were born and raised with rock’n’roll records, and they sold their souls already at their early ages. Many years in this business guarantee the professionalism, but their wicked sense of humour and togetherness keeps them yahoo enough. The band is known of their wild and unexpected – but at the same time really tight – live shows where stage diving, hits, and bruises cannot be avoided. This street credible true rock band consist of 4 tattooed and sweaty gentlemen, and a particularly wild brunette Annabella, who still has the soul in her voice to touch people form the inside too.

Vanity Ink was founded in the end of 2002 and has so far released two EPs and two full-length albums.

“Rock’n’roll is not a lifestyle, it’s a bloodtype.”
