From The Sky ended in 2008
But, we continue to make nice music as 'Helsingfors'. We're at myspace.com/helsingfors. Thanks to everyone who liked or helped out FTS along the way, and to the awesome bands we got to play with.
Our records have been made available for free download. You can obtain 'A Warm Place With No Memory'
HERE and now also 'Like Crystal In A World Of Glass' HERE
We hit our instruments until they make noises that make us grin like small children. We bottle those sounds up and take them to gigs with us where we feed them through amps and hopefully make others grin too. Eventually we put these sounds onto a CD because bottles are rubbish for storing music.
A captivating listening experience packed with energy and emotion...This album serves as one of the freshest examples of what instrumental rock music should really be like - soothing, uplifting, and above all, thought-provoking. // sonic frontiers [read here]
It's really, really hard to dislike this four piece, their lack of pretension is hugely refreshing, and if you're looking for something to soundtrack winter sunsets, you could do a lot worse // rocksound magazine
Sheer bliss....expect great things from this young band // the silent ballet [read here]
L’album non si distingue per una tessitura articolata ma basa il suo fascino sulla semplicità di melodie che scaldano il cuore, come ad esempio in “Position of the stars†dove le chitarre si muovono leggiadramente per disegnare traiettorie dalla bellezza impalpabile. Non manca il brano epico di turno, “someone to remember†, che coi suoi 14 minuti costituisce forse la punta di diamante di un disco qualitativamente molto omogeneo. // www.kronic.it [read here]
