Pökiö was formed in the small town of Imatra, Finland by Lihapullasotilas and Kaleeriorja in the summer of 1999. They wanted to start a hardcore band and played guitar and bass while screaming. Now they had an excuse to tell people at the bar that they had a band and played hardcore. Since Lihapullasotilas and Kaleeriorja were pretty lousy and didn't have a drummer it was maybe more like noisecore.
Pökiö didn't do anything until August 2003, when they recorded an album called Lopullinen Oksennusrefleksi in the same basement where they had always visited making a horrible racket. Pökiö weren't any better musicians by then and still didn't have a drummer, so they used whatever things that made a sound in addition to guitar and bass. All the stuff was recorded live and mainly improvised or thought out briefly just before pushing Play and Record on Ye Olde Tape Recorder Of The Sailor. This set the line for the future actions of Pökiö, songs would be made up on the spot only.
Since then Pökiö has recorded (November 2003) a bit different, more in the vein of traditional noisecore, album called Kärsimyksen Tie with Kenraali Outo on drums. He was just as bad a player as the previously mentioned two cunts and also their long time friend and alcoholic comrade, so everything worked out great. Pökiö recorded another even more worrying album in February 2006. Will it be out soon? Who knows...
