Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 1973 under the influential Finnish independent label Love Records, this single represents a curious intersection of the Finnish underground rock and performance art scenes of the early 1970s. Lasse Velmala, a multifaceted artist and filmmaker known for his provocative sensibilities, led the Kamikaze-miehet project during a period when the label was actively exploring experimental and boundary-pushing recordings that often stood apart from mainstream pop sensibilities.

The record is characteristic of Love Records' willingness to document eccentric, avant-garde collaborations that defined the era's counterculture. The design and presentation reflect the stark, DIY aesthetic common to Finnish small-run releases of the time, focusing on delivering idiosyncratic narratives. While the release remains a niche artifact, it is recognized by collectors as a distinct, if obscure, example of the label's eclectic catalog from a time of significant creative experimentation in Finnish music.
