Usually Finnish rock bands performed covers or hit songs translated into Finnish. <a href="/wiki/Eero_Raittinen" title="Eero Raittinen">Eero Raittinen</a> and his brother <a href="/wiki/Jussi_Raittinen" title="Jussi Raittinen">Jussi Raittinen</a> are among the earliest rockers of the 1960s, alongside groups such as <a href="/wiki/Jormas" title="Jormas">Jormas</a>, <a href="/wiki/Topmost" title="Topmost">Topmost</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ernos" title="Ernos">Ernos</a>. The British band <a href="/wiki/The_Renegades_(band)" title="The Renegades (band)">The Renegades</a> found their biggest success in the 1960s Finland. Helsinki was the centre of Finnish rock and pop music during this period. <a href="/wiki/Love_Records" title="Love Records">Love Records</a> was one of the first domestic record labels dedicated to Finnish rock, even though the label's roster also included jazz and political songs. <a href="/wiki/Suomen_Talvisota_1939-1940" class="mw-redirect" title="Suomen Talvisota 1939-1940">Suomen Talvisota 1939-1940</a> represented Finnish underground, and their only album <i>Underground-Rock</i> (1970) is cited as a big influence among many current Finnish music-makers. Other Finnish underground/psychedelic bands of this era were <a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Sperm_(band)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="The Sperm (band) (page does not exist)">The Sperm</a>, <a href="/w/index.php?title=Apollo_(Finnish_band)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Apollo (Finnish band) (page does not exist)">Apollo</a> and the ground-breaking <a href="/wiki/Blues_Section" title="Blues Section">Blues Section</a>, which spawned <a href="/wiki/Wigwam_(progressive_rock)" class="mw-redirect" title="Wigwam (progressive rock)">Wigwam</a> and <a href="/wiki/Tasavallan_Presidentti" title="Tasavallan Presidentti">Tasavallan Presidentti</a> after its split. </p><p>At the beginning of the 1970s new artists emerged. Singer-songwriters such as <a href="/wiki/Hector_(musician)" title="Hector (musician)">Hector</a> and <a href="/wiki/Juice_Leskinen" title="Juice Leskinen">Juice Leskinen</a> started writing songs in Finnish, combining shades of irony, poetry and introspection with rock sound. Later in the seventies the new wave and punk brought more artists such as <a href="/wiki/Pelle_Miljoona" title="Pelle Miljoona">Pelle Miljoona</a>, <a href="/wiki/Eppu_Normaali" title="Eppu Normaali">Eppu Normaali</a> and <a href="/wiki/Hassisen_kone" class="mw-redirect" title="Hassisen kone">Hassisen kone</a>.

Tampere became at the turn of the 1970s and 80s the most vibrant town in rock culture, spawning "<a href="/wiki/Manserock" class="mw-redirect" title="Manserock">Manserock</a>" as rock music by the town's artists was called. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Hurriganes" title="Hurriganes">Hurriganes</a>, fronted by <a href="/wiki/Remu_Aaltonen" title="Remu Aaltonen">Remu Aaltonen</a>, was one of the best-known groups in Finland. This 1970s group played hard-hitting, boogie-based simple rock, and their song "Get on" is almost anthemic in Finland. Ex-Hurriganes guitarist <a href="/wiki/Albert_J%C3%A4rvinen" title="Albert Järvinen">Albert Järvinen</a> would later collaborate with the likes of <a href="/wiki/Lemmy_Kilmister" class="mw-redirect" title="Lemmy Kilmister">Lemmy Kilmister</a> of <a href="/wiki/Mot%C3%B6rhead" title="Motörhead">Motörhead</a> fame, issuing the <i>Countdown</i> 12" single, with Lemmy featuring on lead vocals on the title track, under the name of Albert Järvinen Band.
