ID:
Matti Auerkallio

Instrument:
Bass

Gear:
ESP LTD B-205, fretless 5-string Warwick Rockbass, cheap but I make it work

Other interests besides music:
Strength training, big fan of mixed martial arts

Other bands:
I've done several solo albums where I play and sing everything myself, always working on a new one. I also play guitar in Manzana, drums in Ultimatium and I have some new stuff always going on. If you're interested, you're better off finding my page Matti Auerkallio Official in Facebook and keeping an eye on that.

Top 4: (17.12.2018)
1. Making new music
2. Laughing and smiling with friends
3. Terrible, horrible bad jokes and dark humour
4. Being left alone

Favourite drink:
Self-made hybrid of fisu/salmiakki vodka

Bad habits:
I can be an asshole sometimes, among other things. Working on it.

Quote:
"You have found me broken, lying in pain, covered in scars. It is true, I've never been this weak before... But I'm still a giant."

Influences/inspiration:
Thoughts, feelings (yuck...), things that provoke them such as films, TV shows, science, music, comic books actually a lot, like Deadpool and Wolverine. Things in life that make you struggle and force you to dig deep to find strength to keep moving forward. Spinning plates in a thunderstorm.
