RECKLESS LOVE: THESE HIGH-KICKIN’ hard rockers from Finland burst onto the UK scene in 2010 with their debut self-titled album.

Inspired by an era when rock bands looked like rock bands, RL – fronted by former Crash Diet singer Olli Herman – come with a genuine sense of swagger, plus a deep regard for the icons of ’80s rock & metal.

To date, the four have completed two headline UK tours, appeared at Download & Firefest, both in 2010, and most recently released their second studio album, ‘Animal Attraction’, which picks up where the debut left off.

Say Reckless Love: “We’ve just completed a headline tour of the UK & Ireland, and we’re still buzzin’ from that – and then there was our debut appearance at Hard Rock Hell. Actually, both Jettblack & The Treatment have played with us before; they’re very exciting bands, and this should make for one helluva night! Also,I know that Spinefarm themselves have got a few surprises up their sleeves!”

Reckless Love: They bring the party. You bring the bottle.

JETTBLACK: YOUNG UK musicians with energy to burn, JB see rock ‘n’ roll as entertainment – a way of partying hard and meeting those girls your parents warned you about…

The four have played UK shows under the ‘Kerrang!’ banner and appeared at top UK festivals such as Download, T In The Park, Hard Rock Hell & Sonisphere, supported by a debut album – ‘Get Your Hands Dirty’ (2010) – that continues to act as the soundtrack to many a (wild) Friday night out...

With their second studio album due early in 2012, preceded by a brand new single/video, Jettblack will continue to break hearts & paint towns (red).

THE TREATMENT: TEENAGE ROCKERS from Cambridge, who have recently released their debut studio album, ‘This Might Hurt’.

This 14-tracker contains their first single/video, ‘Drink, Rock, Fight’, and the group are currently causing a buzz in both the UK & international media, combining classic influences (early Def Leppard, AC/DC, Guns n’ Roses) with a raw, youthful energy.

As a result, their name has appeared on bills alongside Black Stone Cherry, Motorhead & Alice Cooper (the latter on a full European tour), not to mention the Sonisphere & High Voltage festivals in the UK, with Hard Rock Hell now ticked off, too.

Having just completed their first UK headline tour, supported by current single, 'The Doctor', the band now have sights set on the US & Japan.
