After two singles (One More Time, Beautiful Bomb) the band is ready to release it's much anticipated debut album early 2010.
---
Kuopio, Finland isn't exactly Hicksville, Indiana and Helsinki sure ain't no West Hollywood but with Reckless Love the analogies are obvious. This bunch of rockers dropped out of school, moved to Helsinki and chose to scrape by whatever menial jobs available to chase their rock n' roll dreams. Having scored a recording deal with a major label, Universal Music, as the 2nd glam rock band during the last decade or so, Reckless Love show that, if nothing else, the guys master whatever lessons they've ever taken in the subject of hard rock.
Reckless Love's debut album features a plethora of influences audible to the listener, and as knowledgeable as the band seems to be of its musical roots, it's their own take on hard rock that makes the album so extremely exciting. Sure, hard life can teach you stuff, but in Reckless Love's case it has taught them to teach people stuff. The lesson here is: there's not a whole lot crap that cant' be healed with a good song and a smile. And because the songs are so good, smile you will - after you get a load of this. Reckless Love extends sonic hails to the greats of hard rock ranging from Kiss to Van Halen to W.A.S.P. to Warrant to Poison to Guns N' Roses and everything in between, with a heartwarming, sunny disposition able to melt the gloomiest of cynics.
The party starts with Beautiful Bomb, One More Time, Love Machine, So Yeah!!, Feel My Heat and Born To Rock. With subject matter dealing dominantly with the over-enhanced sexuality of a young straight male (i.e. women, or the lack thereof), the songs have a boisterous, energetic, fun, freewheeling party attitude, combined with swaggering, outrageous and sometimes, downright silly lyrics. It's all packed in a top-notch modern, yet adequately retro sound that strongly reflects classic 80's hair metal heroes. Not reducing to a one trick pony, the album also has it's darker, rawer, heavy metal side. Aggressive and theatrical Wild Touch, Badass and Romance have a rowdy, rebellious bite to them. Iced with slick choirs, these cuts include heavy guitar rifforama and some of vocalist Olli Herman's nastiest Vince Neil snarls. This is where the band's Judas Priest, Ozzy, WASP and Ratt influences shine. The album also contains the super slick ballad Sex, which gives away the fact that under the disguise of hell-raising party animal machismo lie sensitive guys wearing their hearts on their sleeves. Predominantly guitar driven, melodic and beautiful the album also portrays the band's classy touch to keyboard arrangements. Featuring the whole arsenal: big choirs, clean high vocals and fragile single voice melodies, almost whispering at times, vocally the album is a wonder to behold, and in what might come as a surprise, the band can also display a striking lyrical depth, almost coming down to philosophical level in Back To Paradise.
While maybe dropouts in regular school, there's not a page in the book of hard rock these guys haven't taken to heart. In the hair metal school tables turn and Reckless Love are the teachers. And the class will only be dismissed once thoroughly entertained.
Reckless Love‘s released 'InVader' in 2016. Their next album 'Turborider' is due via AFM Records on February 25, 2022.
In Jan 2024, Reckless Love have announced that they are taking a break from touring and recording until further notice given that lead vocalist Olli Herman is now part of the Finnish rockers Popeda. Reckless Love consisting of Herman, guitarist Pepe Reckless and bassist Jalle Verne have also parted ways with drummer Hessu Maxx.

Reckless Love Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Seductive and unknown
Followed a beauty now I'm far from home
She's made of silicone
Oh God she turns me on
She's got connections
She's got the powers in black magic
Her reputation succeeds her
On kiss and I'm a believer
She uses witchery
On my heart, oh my God
So dangerous and so drastic
She's plastic she's fantastic
She pulls me on the floor
Here we go
She said dance baby dance for me
Come on dance do it secretly
Be my baby rock rock rock rocker on
On the dance floor of rock n roll
Extended and extreme
Most beautiful I've seen
She is so fake but oh so very real
She likes to play it rough
I cannot get enough
She is so hot even her fragrance
Smells like botox
My medication is her
One kiss and I belong to her
She's got my poison heart
Pumpin' hard, oh my God
So dangerous and so drastic
She's plastic she's fantastic
She pulls me on the floor
Here we go
She said dance baby dance for me
Come on dance do it secretly
Be my baby rock rock rock rocker on
On the dance floor of rock n roll
She said dance baby dance for me
Come on dance do it secretly
Be my baby rock rock rock rocker on
On the dance floor of rock n roll
She said dance baby dance for me
Come on dance do it secretly
Be my baby rock rock rock rocker on
On the dance floor of rock n roll
She said dance
The lyrics to the song "Dance" by Reckless Love paint a picture of a dangerous and seductive world of rock n roll. The singer of the song is drawn into this world by a beautiful woman made of silicone. She uses black magic and witchery to ensnare him, and he is unable to resist her pull. Despite her artificial nature, he finds her exciting and compelling. As they dance together in this world of rock n roll, he is completely enthralled by her.
The lyrics of the song explore the idea of the artificial and the fake, and how these things can still be captivating and alluring. The woman the singer is drawn to is clearly not real in the traditional sense, but she still exerts a powerful hold over him. The lyrics also touch on the idea of danger and risk-taking. In the world of rock n roll, anything can happen, and the singer is willingly entering into this world, even as he knows it may be dangerous.
Overall, "Dance" is a song that celebrates the thrills of rock n roll while exploring the darker side of this world. It is a song about temptation, risk-taking, and ultimately surrendering to the power of music.

JESUS CHRIST SAVES
💞🙏“Dear Heavenly Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward.
Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen
