Around this time a decade ago we had our first band session under the name Shrapnel Storm. There has been some small roster changes since then, but mostly it’s been the same guys week after week and year after year.
To celebrate and to cut short this hiatus regarding new music, we proudly present a new song for you in Youtube format.
Welcome to “Mine Command Denmark” friends:
We had a blast in Varjobaari, the upgraded venue was very cool. Varjobaari is supporting local underground bands, a valued service. Go there, drink beer and see live shows, guys.
Next stop for Shrapnel Storm will be St. Petersburg in June. It will be our first gig outside of Finland and our 40th gig alltogether.
It has been almost 10 years since the first training session under the name Shrapnel Storm. Goddamn, does time fly or what…

As a way of saying thanks to you all for coming out to Shrapnel Storm gigs this year, I present to you: The Carpet Bombing.
It’s soon December and Shrapnel Storm is done with gigs for this year. I think we played about ten gigs this year after recording our debut album, “Mother War”. It was a blast and I want to thank everyone who saw us this year. Thanks for the support, Finland!
Here’s a shot from our last gig in Pori, the people there were amazing.
We still have one surprise for you before the year is over, more info on that later. Stay tuned.
Some big shows incoming! Good times ahead!
