Kuolleet Intiaanit, Finnish for (the) Dead Indians (as in native Americans)… Read Full Bio ↴Kuolleet Intiaanit, Finnish for (the) Dead Indians (as in native Americans), was a mushroom rock band from Seinäjoki, Finland. Their music has elements of psychedelia and punk, and as for Finnish music, they're often referred to as the 21st century's Sielun Veljet. Guitar rock, in any case, flavoured with surrealist or absurdist lyrics (not exactly meant to be analyzed is the message here) and elements of theater. They were formed in 2000, and as of 2008, are either on a break or defunct. Their label does say they are on a break.

Members of the band are or were Ilmari Tuulenhalkoja (vocals), Emil Topaz (guitar and vocals), Johannes Tyrannos (bass guitar and vocals) and Juhana Amadeus (drums). These are stage names, and the real names of the members have not spread outside Seinäjoki. In live shows, a synthesizer player is added (on the latest tour and album, Mikael Rynigen). They do not give interviews (except for one, which has been read by few and was done, unsurprisingly, by a person from Seinäjoki), play encores or speak to their audiences.

So, why theater, of all words to describe them? Well, their live shows could be treated as such, that is why. In a live show, Kuolleet Intiaanit were usually dressed in black suits and top hats and their faces are painted white, except for the area surrounding the eyes, which is black. Other known costumes are straitjackets and black-white-lined suits.

Kukaan ei voi elää ilman aivoja paitsi hullut
Kuolleet Intiaanit Lyrics

Krokotiilit ovat tulleet tänne vesiimme kahlaamaan.
Minä tiedän kyllä missä ne siloposket majailevat...
Otan verkon käteeni, kiristän saappaitttteni nyörit.
Poukamasta saaliina lihaa; verta nyt juoda voimme.

mä elän ilman aivoja
ja kerään
kalloja kuin hullut

K u t s u n h u u d o n m ä k u u l e n

ei vielä lähteä saa
K u t s u n h u u d o n m ä k u u l e n
pakottaa tanssimaan

Riittimenot kiihottavat. Kutittavat hampaitani.
Tanssin taikaa. Kaikki nyt koemme kirkastuksen.
Viimeinen liekki. Savu herättää aistimme.
Näen yhä selvemmin sieraimillani.

Kukaan ei voi elää ilman aivoja, paitsi hullut.
Kukaan ei voi elää ilman aivoja, paitsi hullut.
Kukaan ei voi elää ilman aivoja, paitsi hullut.

Oli helvetin kova live bändi. Heti kun nousi levy top40 listalle, niin laittoivat bändin telakalle. En ole sen jälkeen kuullut. Arvostan.

Väittäisin levykaupoista löytyvän yhtyeen kahta studioalbumia Puuluurankoa ja Silinteritietä. Netistäkin niitä saa, esim varmasti levykauppa x. Bändin muita tuotoksia ei kaupasta saa eikä oikein mistään ellei ole hyvä tuuri.
