ARTKILLS – A Rising Force in Modern Metal
ARTKILLS is a modern metal band from Helsinki, founded in 2020. Their music blends heavy riffs, groovy rhythms, and catchy vocal melodies, creating a distinctive and fresh sound in Finland’s metal scene.
The band’s debut single Last Goodbyes (2021) gained over 50,000 Spotify streams, and the follow-up The Fall drew media attention with a music video directed by Esa Jussila (Battle Beast). In 2022, ARTKILLS released their EP KillGallery, featuring the praised single Don’t Follow, which received radio play on Radio City.
The band has earned industry recognition, being named Inferno Magazine’s Demo Band of the Month in 2022 and nominated by Kaaoszine as Newcomer of the Year. In 2023–2024, ARTKILLS headlined the Modern Metal Wave tour across Finland and played two sold-out shows at Semifinal in Helsinki. They have also shared the stage with bands like Kilpi, Awake Again, Merta, and Ikinä.
At the beginning of 2025, ARTKILLS signed a live booking deal with Gramopop Oy, marking an important step forward in their rapidly rising career.
