AHOLA, the new “vital rock act” launched by Jarkko Ahola of the Finnish metal groups TERÄSBETONI and NORTHERN KINGS, released its debut album, “Stoneface”, on April 25. The CD was recorded at Headline Studio in Tampere.

Commented Ahola: “AHOLA is a band that strives from the foundation of rock giving the listeners those vibes that the songs made people feel during the golden era of rock and heavy music. We write our music boldly and by experimenting new stuff, bringing the good stuff to this day, with a modern and unique twist and sound.”

A CD-release party will be held on May 4 at Tavastia in Helsinki .
