Influenced by such artists as Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd, the group combined eastern themes, mysticism and vivid psychedelia with their unique, hard-edged acid-rock.

Group members were Petri "Pete" Walli (guitar, vocals), Jukka Jylli (bass) and Sami Kuoppamäki (drums, percussion).

During their existence, Kingston Wall released only three self-financed albums on their own label, Trinity. The albums were Kingston Wall (also known as I) in 1992, II in 1993 and Tri-Logy in 1994.

The group was disbanded by Petri Walli in December 1994. Walli went travelling to India and Norway. The definite end for Kingston Wall came on June 28th 1995 when Walli jumped to his death from a church tower in Helsinki.

After the band's demise, the three Kingston Wall albums have been re-issued as double CD's with bonus tracks by Zen Garden record label (Finland). In 2000, a remix album titled Freakout Remixes was released, which featured trance/techno remixes of Kingston Wall songs by Finnish electronica artists, and in autumn 2005 a 3-disc set titled Real Live Thing was released, which featured live bootlegs from various live shows, available now for the first time ever.

Love Tonight
Kingston Wall Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh, love tonight
ooh, would feel so fine

I got to find someone to love tonight
you know, i've been lately feeling so, so tight
I cannot keep myself together,
I see this world behind a flustering haze
I got to find someone who to give this present

I been saving for all these days
(end chorus)

Ooh, love tonight
ooh, would feel so fine

Ooh, love tonight
Ooh, would sure unwind

The male in me is giving too much fuzz
it's taking me forwards with all this rush

I cannot keep myself together,
I see this world behind a flustering haze

I got to find someone who to give this present
I been saving for all these days
