Rough Grind - Pieces of Resistance

Finnish heavy rockers Rough Grind released their debut album "Pieces of Resistance" (Inverse Records) worldwide on all digital platforms on March 4th, 2020.

Rough Grind combine hard rock and heavy metal into a unique blend that is further spiced up with classic rock elements. The band has previously released three EPs: "Son of a Gun" (2014), "Four for the Road" (2017) and "Trouble or Nothing" (2018).

First single Snakes And Ladders was released on January 29th

– It was an easy choice as the first single, because that's where the story of the current line-up begins, says bass player and lead singer Sami.

After "Trouble or Nothing" EP, Sami returned to his bass-playing roots, as the band welcomed new guitarist Arg to their ranks that already included guitarist Ville and drummer Killi.

The guys themselves may be quick to laugh, but the music from Rough Grind doesn't pull any punches when it comes to pointing out all the injustices plaguing the world today. Their repertoire also includes moody pieces that cast an eye on the pain points of life, as evidenced by the new album's second single, "The Die Is Cast", released on February 19.

The last two Rough Grind EPs have been welcomed reasonably well internationally, and their songs have been getting airtime in countries such as USA, Canada, UK and Germany.
