GANDALF (FINLAND)

Gandalf were formed in 1993 at Helsinki, Finland by drummer and main songwriter (then guitar player) Nalle Österman, guitarist Timo Nyberg and vocalist Jari Hurskainen helped out by a session drummer Mika "Gas Lipstick" Karppinen, who nowadays plays with the acclaimed HIM. After a few years of rehearsing, gigging and demoing, with Nalle changing over from guitar to drums, it was on the "Cradle" (1995) and "Snakebite" demos that Gandalf's music finally bloomed. Both demos got full points in Terrorizer among others and all reviews were very enthusiastic. So much that they eventually got contacted by Wicked World. A contract was signed and their debut album "Deadly Fairytales" was recorded in Spring 1998 at Astia Studio in Lappeenranta, Finland by Anssi Kippo (Children Of Bodom, Sinergy, Impaled Nazarene).
