The band started touring and went through some line up changes. The new line up including Sammy, Eliaz, Jari, Spit and Illy recorded a 5-song promo-CD which got quite nice response, especially from outside of Finland. Despite of the good reception of the Promo-CD, the year 2001 was uncertain time for the band Jari left the band and joined Finnish metal kings Timo Rautiainen ja Trio Niskalaukaus and Sammy moved to Helsinki Rock City and was soon after followed by the rest of the band. In the beginning of 2002 Sammy bumped into Jack (ex- Palmcut) while exploring the nightlife of Helsinki and they decided to join their forces and breathe new life into Private Line.
The band started intense rehearsing period and went on to record new kick ass material. In December 2002 Private Line released a new Mini-CD Six Songs Of Hellcity Trendkill (released by Bad Habits/ Kråklund Records). The Mini-CD got rave reviews from the Finnish rock media and also many international print and webzines were enthusiastic about these Finnish newcomers. The band did a 40-show tour in Finland and created a fanatic fanbase. Private Line's loud as f**k mix of 80's sleaze and early 90's alternative punk was now starting to make bigger and bigger waves. The lead singer Sammy`s vocals, stage presence and showmanship was more than often compared to the likes of Vince Neil (Mötley Crüe) and Sebastian Bach (Skid Row).

Private Line Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been away since didn't know where to go
All I need is my liberation
The place you once called home
Has changed to strange and cold
Where have you been
Call 1-800-out-of-no-where?
Where have you been
Call 1-800-out-of-no-where?
No friendly faces, I won't look back
I'll move on
Even as a kid I had my reputation
I couldn't be what they told me to be
I turned my back on education
I'd buy the world for a song
Damn close to prove them wrong
Where have you been
Call 1-800-out-of-no-where?
I'd rather stand on my own
Where have you been
Call 1-800-out-of-no-where?
No friendly faces, I won't look back
I'll move on
Have you heard I'm singing about you
Look at me I'm fine without you
I'm okey on my own, been out of no-where
Have you heard I'm singing about you
Look at me I'm fine without you
Why did you hang up the phone?
The lyrics to Private Line's song " 1-800-Out-Of-Nowhere" tell the story of a person who has been out of touch with their past for a long time. The singer describes a place that used to be home, but has now become strange and cold, with no friendly faces. The person has been on a journey, searching for their liberation, but they've hit a roadblock and turn to call 1-800-Out-Of-Nowhere.
The singer's past is not without its challenges, as they describe a childhood in which they always had a reputation that was difficult to live up to. They chose to turn their back on education and pursue their own dreams, taking risks to prove others wrong. As the song progresses, the singer references singing about their situation, showing that they have found their own path without the need for others' approval. The final line, "why did you hang up the phone?" suggests that there was someone who they once tried to reconnect with but who refused to be a part of their journey any longer.
The overall message of the song is that life is a journey, and sometimes we need to separate from our past to find our way forward. It can be difficult and lonely, but it's ultimately worth it to find our own path and pursue our dreams.
