There are still people, who believe that the home of Santa Claus (aka Father Christmas, or Joulipukki in Finnish) is on the North Pole. But actually his real home is in the mountains of Korvantunturi at the Arctic Circle in Lapland, Finland.
So it feels natural to these 3 Ladies from Kuopio, to do a Santa Twist. Compared to their rougher Garagepunk tunes this comes sweet and light as a snowflake - a Christmas Song, which goes as well beyond the season.

Special Season's Greetings and kiitos to Vilunki 3000, Olli Äx, Jyrki Äx, Sami and Jaakko Viitalähde

The Micragirls, the marvellous drum-organ-guitar-trio, did the 'Wild Girl Walk' at the Altai Studio, Helsinki (with noisepunknig Pentti Dassum on the mix and 22PP's Asko on the coffee machine)

If you like your sound wild and raw, primitive and ramshackle, blaring out of tiny micra-car speakers, all windows rolled down for fresh northern wind in the face, then this is for you.

Risu keeps good beats rolling on and on, jumps and stomps even if the skins are ripped apart. Kata's organ keeps flying loops through the garage not puzzled when her old Rocket smells funny and burned while Mari's guitar trashes and cuts it's way , sharp like a cutlass in the jungle, through the orgiastic happening of yells and screams.

And in the turmoil of speedy noise once in a while you will be wrapped up for a recovery in the silky backdrop of darker moments, sweet and twanging micra-ballads. The only cover in the 12 song collection, "Funnel Of Love", gives a hint from which era the 3 Ladies from Kuopio once draw their influences from.

Sure, their own stuff is still running on 60s fuel, but is so much now and their own. Heavy Trash friend Jon Spencer from NY together with Matt Verta-Ray joined for "Out Of Tune" vocals. Well,... what can we say..."Girls go Crazy". They even dare to do an "Electric Chair Twist". Disturbing? Micragirls turned on the switch. Really cool, no - really hot Bone Voyage release this fall.

How was your summer?
This digital only single is the pre-runner for their upcoming Album, entitled "Wild Girl Walk"

Haunted Heart is Micragirls darkest pearl, as of yet. Heartjumping bass and tom groove, flattering tremoloe guitar and haunted vocals. The recording features Minna from Risto on doublebass. The flipside of the single has two speedy fun songs you shouldn't miss either. Recorded by Risto Ylihärsylä

"Every single tune on their debut is frickin' awsome and the three Finish girls have a brilliantly intuitive way with ramshackle rhythm." (Plan B, UK/US)
