Subaurban Vacation is availble in the shops Jerry's Music in Ekenäs and CD-Dreams (here you can also buy it online) and Fazers Music in Jakobstad.
The full album "Suburban Vacation" now released on klicktrack!
"Suburban Vacation" was recorded in only 4 days in the suburbs of Helsinki. The band suffered from fever, Sebastian had only a third of his lungcapacity (thanks to untreated astma) and a vocal chord inflammation as well. The band was stuck in a small room above the studio where the temperature was about 40 degrees celsius, smelly men in a closet anyone?
All these factors made the sound very raw and somewhat aggressive, with some help from the boys tendency to suffer from hangovers.
Glamourous? No...
Rock'n'Roll? Yes!!
The album Suburban Vacation now also released as physical CD at levyvirasto.net
Suburban Vacation now also available for download and as ringtones from many other sites, and more to come.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 18/01/2007
Band Website: http://www.moonfreak.tk
Band Members:
Sebastian Bäcksbacka - Lead Vocals, Guitar

Patrick Öström - Lead Guitar

Måns Aldén - Bass

Anders Salin - Drums

Tapio Laasonen - Backing Vocals, Acoustic Guitar

Influences: REM, Jethro Tull, Danko Jones, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Beatles, Depeche Mode, KISS, Björn Rosenström, Ozzy, Joe Cocker, Richie Havens, Van Halen, The Doors, Ramones, Green Day, Bob Marley,Motorhead
Sounds Like: Sebastian's voice is some kind of mix between Ian Anderson's and Michael Stipe's.
Patrick's guitarwork sometimes bursts into Slash-like sounds and sometimes the totally weird.
MÃ¥ns' tight and interesting basswork has a tendency to bounce into some disco grooves of the seventies.
Anders' drumming is progressive, rock'n'roll, reaggae or afro depending on song and situation. Sometimes a mix of the above.

The debut album "Suburban Vacation" has a slight Jethro Tull vibe mixed with REM and Foo Fighters.

All these ingredients mixed together makes the unique sound that is MoonfreaK!
Record Label: seba-rock.com
Type of Label: Unsigned

New bandmember!

Everybody welcome Tapio Laasonen as a new member of MoonfreaK.Or maybe he is not that new, he did sing backing vocals on Suburban Vacation and he is also the oldest guy in the band.
