Varjo

------------------VARJO 1996 - 2008-------------------



The story goes back in 1996 when Antti Lautala and Henry Waldén formed a band called Varjo (a shadow in english). Varjo was influeced by gothic rock, post-punk and ambient but it differed from other gothic bands by the finnish lyrics. At the beginning of the 21st century Varjo was the most successful gothic band with finnish lyrics.



After the third album there were changes in line-up but also a tragedy: ex-keyboard player disappeared and after a year and a half he was found dead. After those difficult times Varjo made new songs, supported New Model Army and was ready to record the fifth album.



Two weeks before the studio Henry died in a fire accident and that ended the story of Varjo.



Four months after the funerals the trio recorded the last album and it will be out in January 2010 (Stupido Records)



After the recordings Antti, Matthew and Jukka decided to continue with a new band name and new songs. It was also natural to change the language and write lyrics in english. Silent Scream will go further to the core of post-punk with influences like Killing Joke, Amebix etc.
