History

[edit]

Early years

[edit]

In an eighth grade music class, classmates Hanna Moen Reinsnes (born Hanna Moen Johannessen), Elin Boland, and Ida Iki realised that they wanted to play music together, but were not planning on forming a band.[1] They started playing music because they wanted to learn the song Last Christmas before the holidays in 2003.[2][3] They formed a band together in October 2003,[4] and chose the name Cyanide because they thought it sounded cool.[3] Two other members were originally part of the band, but they left early, and were replaced with a "redhaired chick".[5] Reinsnes had been playing violin since the 4th grade, and had sung in various rock bands before this point.[6] Her father, Tor Helge Reinsnes Moen, was the general manager for Ungdommens hus, the local youth centre in Alta.[7][8] On 28 August 2004, four bands from the youth centre, including Cyanide, were invited to play at a fundraising event organised by TV-aksjonen in the city centre of Alta. Around 100 people were present in the audience when they played.[9] This was Cyanide's first concert.[1][2]

On 7 October 2004, they performed a concert at Ungdommens hus with two other groups, Lisch, and Rålerbyrgers, in front of an audience of 100-150 people. With Reinsnes on vocals and bass, Boland on drums, and Iki on guitar, they also played with guitarist Marianne Haugvik Hanssen. The concert was the first in a series of three anti-racism concerts held at the venue.[10] When asked if such events had a purpose, Reinsnes answered that the turnout showed young locals' commitment to stand up to racism. The members of the band also commented on their aspirations to become rock stars after having played there.[11] Later in October, they recorded the song "Can't Even Describe" for a collaborative album with five other bands at the youth centre, with production from Lars Rune Rebbestad [no]. The album was created as a part of a series of workshop projects by Ungdommens hus to help promote the participants' competence. The project received 35,000 kr in funding from the county so they could hire audio engineers and publish the CD.[12][13] The album, named Huset (Norwegian for 'The house'), was released on 12 December 2004, with a release concert held at their venue the same day. The bands also played an assortment of Christmas music at the event.[14][15]

Cyanide played at a municipal exhibition of the youth festival UKM [no] in Alta in January 2005. Zymphelia guitarist Charlotte Pettersen[16] played with the band instead of Hanssen, who was competing in the Norwegian Athletics Championships in Stange.[17] The band was among the 19 groups selected to move on the county finals in Hammerfest.[18] Passing the jury's judgement, they and 25 other groups in Finnmark went on to the nationals in Trondheim. Their performance was highlighted as "impressive" by Finnmark Dagblad journalist Bjørnar Lunga, in particular Reinsnes's performance on the violin.[19] Pettersen played with the band during both the exhibition and finale.[20] Only three members of Cyanide were able to attend the entirety of the event in Trondheim: Reinsnes, Iki, and Hanssen.[21] Pettersen and Boland had to return to Alta to attend their confirmation ceremonies, while Reinsnes dropped hers to attend the entirety of the festival.[22] Cyanide were the opening act on 21 May, and were one of eight bands to play on the outdoor stage,[23] where they received assistance from Driv drummer Eirik Aune Hanssen.[24] Cyanide also played at the 20th Alta IF athletics meet on 28 May, where Marianne Hanssen partook in both the musical performance and the athletics.[25] She set new personal records in the 100-meter dash and long jump, the latter of which was also a district record.[26]

Cyanide played at the Aronnesrocken [no] festival on 1 July, closing out the first day of the event together with the Launderettes, who they considered to be their role models.[27]

In November 2005, Cyanide received a cultural grant of 20,000 kr from Alta municipality for the work they had demonstrated thus far in their career, with the jury wanting to "inspire them to continue".[28] By this point, the band consisted of Reinsnes on vocals, bass, and violin; Iki on guitar; and Boland on drums.[29] Hanssen had left the band to focus on football earlier in the year.[5] They wrote their application on a piece of cloth to attract the attention of the jury. The band stated that they had decided to spend the grant on recording a demo in Falun, Sweden, with Swedish blues band Bacon Brothers.[29] The Bacon Brothers had previously instructed at a music workshop at Ungdommens hus in May, which was attended by Cyanide and seven other bands.[30] Cyanide partook in another collaborative album with Ungdommens hus, this time with nine other bands. The album, Huset 2, was released on 1 December 2005, but they did not have sufficient funds to hold a release concert.[31] The album was produced by Robert "Robban" Ekholm and Marcus Källström.[32]

Cyanide failed to get past the county finale of UKM in 2006. They were disappointed that the sound quality was poor for their perfomance, with the audio engineers also noting the poor audio conditions.[33]

On 11 April 2006, Cyanide played their first concert in Guovdageaidnu, at a youth concert at Buletjávri during Easter. They took the place of Mira Craig, who was unable to attend due to illness.[34][35] Other musicians present were rappers SlinCraze [no] and Aimen, along with the newly formed hard rock band Absint.[34] They played in front of an audience of c. 150 people.[36] In June, they set off to Sweden to record their debut album, which they hoped would be ready for Christmas. Their travel expenses were covered by the cultural grant and income from gigs.[37] On 21 July, the band played the opening act of the Midnattsrocken festival, where they played mostly original material aside from three cover songs. Reinsnes also sang a duet with Petter Carlsen [no; de].[38]

By August 2006, Cyanide's debut album was only missing vocals and mixing. An unfinished version of the album was given to Altaposten, who described the album as more akin to the punk of the 1960s and 70s than contemporary music. The producer of the album, Robban Ekholm, was in Alta at this point working on the "Gigant" project,[39] which he thought of after his production on the Huset 2 CD. Bands from across Norway, Sweden and Russia were to partake in his project, chief among them Cyanide.[40] The producer had promised Cyanide to produce their album when they had finished writing ten songs.[1]

The band was joined by bassist Karen Denisova (born Karen Therese Ugelvik) in October 2006, debuting with the band for the first time on 29 October at Kroa in Alta.[41] This marked the last time Reinsnes played bass for the band; Altaposten journalist Lars Richard Olsen described her as becoming far more active on stage after handing Denisova her bass while playing. During Denisova's performance, a string on her instrument snapped, leaving them unable to continue. A bassist in the audience was however able to assist the band by fetching a spare he had at home.[42] While the other members of Cyanide were from Alta, Denisova was born in Tana. After hearing her play at their school, they pressured her into joining the band while on a class trip in the woods.[1][43] Denisova had previously partaken in UKM twice, once as a solo act.[44]

They played their first show in Tromsø on 10 December 2006.[45]

Kill Buljo and record debut

[edit]

In August 2006, Altaposten reported that Cyanide were billed to create a theme song for the upcoming comedy film Kill Buljo.[46] In anticipation of the movie, the band changed their name to Cyaneed in order to avoid confusion with other bands of the same name internationally.[1] Finnmark Dagblad reported on 1 December that a music video for their song "Dødsmaskin" (Norwegian for 'Death Machine') had been uploaded to the film's website.[47] The video was filmed in the barn of a local farmer.[1] Their appearance in the film saw them get more concert gigs; Denisova commented that they had to turn down some because of the amount.[48] In March 2007, the band remarked that they were fully booked every weekend until their summer vacation from school.[49]

At a release party for Kill Buljo at a bar in Oslo, they were denied entry to the venue because they were not of age. They were reluctantly let in after they threatened to not play any music.[5]

On 12 December 2006, Cyaneed released their first record Jeg forstår ikke hva jeg gjør (Norwegian for 'I don't understand what I'm doing'), for which they had a release party at Ungdommens hus the same day.[7] Denisova was not featured on the record, as she was not part of the band when they recorded it.[48] It was originally slated to be called Æ va ikke med på å lage det her ('I didn't take part in making this'), and to contain twelve songs.[50] A thousand copies of the album were printed.[1] The album consisted of ten tracks[51] of various material they had written up to that point, including "Dødsmaskin" from Kill Buljo;[45] in a 2008 interview, the band described their perception of the record as a demo disc, and did therefore not consider it be their album debut.[52] It was variously described by newspapers as an EP,[53][54][55], album,[45][56] or simply a record.[7][57] They personally set up a stand at a night-open store in Alta to sell copies of the record, where they also signed them.[57]

Jeg forstår ikke hva jeg gjør received positive to mixed reception from reviewers, with Finnmark Dagblad journalist Heidi Nilima Monsen calling it a "surprisingly strong debut album".[56] Lars Richard Olsen of Altaposten commended the "fuck you-feeling" permeating the record, but he was critical of its inconsistent musical quality.[58] In a review in Nordlys, Christine Kristoffersen Hansen likewise criticised the inconsistent quality of the record's presentation and music, though she complimented the band's humour, edge, and enthusiasm throughout.[59] Both Hansen and Monsen considered the track "Dødsmaskin" to be the strongest on the record,[56][59] with Olsen calling it a "ready-made hit".[58]

It was reported in Altaposten in January 2007 that several Alta musicians, including Cyaneed, would play in Liverpool in March or April. Others announced to partake in the event were the bands Zymphelia and Red Metal, along with musician Petter Carlsen. Cyaneed started translating their lyrics into English for their show with the help of friends from England. They had gotten the opportunity to play in England due their connection to three students at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts.[60] Later in January, Cyaneed played at the municipal exhibition of UKM.[61] During their performance, they encouraged the audience to boo them to lower expectations.[62] On 14 April, they played at the county finals of UKM, where they went on to the nationals. The day after, they travelled to Liverpool to perform at the Cavern Club in Liverpool, which they played on the evening of 16 April during the club's "Norway Night".[63][64] While in Liverpool, they partook in several workshops at Gateacre School, one of which was a music workshop. They played in front of an audience of around 300 people in a packed theatre, which Reinsnes called the "best crowd [they had] ever played for".[65] On June 8,[66] Cyaneed played at the Olavshallen Concert Hall in Trondheim on in connection with the UKM festival. While performing a sound check, the band asked the staff if they could play an additional song, which they were allowed.[67] The following day they played at the venue of the Trondheim park Ilaparken [no].[66]

On 25 June 2007, Cyaneed played at Det Sorte Får in Harstad with local band The Revolt.[68] They played mostly familiar material, but they also played "a new song or two", according to Altaposten journalist Lars Richard Olsen.[69] On 29 June,[70] Cyaneed were the opening act at the Skiippagurra Festival in Skiippagurra, Deatnu.[71] Despite low expectations from the band in regards to attendace, they received positive reception from the audience, which they partly attributed to Denisova being a local;[72] she had worked at the festival since she was 11, having joined her parents at the festival grounds since 2002. After the festival, Denisova had to hitch a ride home with commuters travelling past Tana bru for work.[73]

In November 2007, it was reported in Finnmark Dagblad that Iki had developed tendonitis, leaving her unable to join the band at a show in Liverpool in December.[74] On 9 December, Cyaneed headlined a show at the Barfly as part of the Liverpool Music Week, playing with three other bands.[5] They had gotten the opportunity to travel there because of connections to an Alta local studying at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts.[75] Iki took a break from playing music until February 2008 when she started practicing for the band's performance at by:Larm in Oslo. A concert in Murmansk, Russia, in February was cancelled due to her condition.[76]

Tiny Terror EP

[edit]

Cyaneed released the EP Tiny Terror on 21 December 2007, with both English and Norwegian-language releases.[77] It was recorded over a weekend in August 2007, with production from Robert Ekholm. The band paid for production costs themselves, despite offers from Ungdommens hus to cover them. The record consisted of three new songs, in addition to a rerecording of an older one.[78] The record was released in both English and Norwegian because they wanted to increase their focus on the international market.[55]

On 10 July 2008, Cyaneed played at the Sámi music music festival Riddu Riđđu.[79] On 19 July, they played the closing act on the secondary stage of the Bukta Tromsø Open Air Festival in front of an audience of approximately 2000 people, which exceeded the capacity of the venue. They mostly played songs from their catalogue, but a new song was also present at their concert. Reinsnes considered their inclusion at the festival to be "awesome, nearly absurd", as they were one of only two bands from Northern Norway.[80] Denisova was reportedly relieved that they did not have to play on the main stage.[81]

They released their second album "I Rule This Library for Tonight" on 7 November 2008, with a release party being held at John Dee in Oslo, with Zymphelia performing as the opening act. The audience numbered around 250 to 300 people. With the members of the band all having become adults by this point, they believed their maturity and growth as musicians were reflected in the album.[82]

On 28 June 2010, Cyaneed announced that they would be moving to Oslo in August. The band's drummer, Elin Boland, chose to stay behind to prioritise her education and attaining a steady income, with Finnmark Dagblad noting that she would take a "year's break".[83] On 2 August, she announced her departure from the band, citing the fatigue she experienced from their lifestyle of touring and gigs. The audition for a new drummer was held from 23 to 29 August.[83][84] Her final performance with the band was held on 2 September at that year's Døgnvill Festival [no] in Tromsø in front of their biggest audience thus far, which Boland called the best performance of her life.[85] The new drummer, Henrik Gustavsen, debuted with the band's gig at the Rått Råde festival in Stavanger on 4 September. He was previously the drummer for Surferosa.[86][87] While they were initially sceptical about looking for a new drummer, Gustavsen entering the band went smoothly.[88] He played with the band in their hometown of Alta for the first time in March 2011. With Henriksen being from Lier in Southern Norway, he initially had reservations about playing, but his performance was well received by the audience.[89]

Cyaneed released the single Husky on Christmas Eve 2011, where they sang in their native Northern Norwegian dialect after taking inspiration from the band Kråkesølv. The track came after a long hiatus, as three of the members had been working on side projects over 2011, with Henriksen playing in other bands, and Denisova and Iki working on solo projects.[88]

Biru Baby: Image change

[edit]

Wanting to create heavier rock music that they themself "wanted to play and listen to", the band decided to change their image. They also changed their name to Biru Baby (Northern Sami for 'Goddamn Baby', lit.'Devil Baby') in April 2014[90] to better reflect their Sámi identity.[91] They described their dissatisfaction with the commercial direction the band had been taking by adapting music for radio, and discarded one of the albums they had been working on for two years. They had however recorded 11 songs that they would be releasing under their new name. Their drummer, Gustavsen, left the band after this.[92] They had not found a replacement for him, so they decided to hire a "musician for various jobs" for their concerts during the rest of the year.[90]

Biru Baby released their first album under their new name, Volume 1, on 2 October 2015. They also uploaded a music video to their song "Fuck my heart" to YouTube on the same day.[93]

On 16 March 2018, Biru Baby released the album Ancient Call, which they described as "electro rock punk". Synth was provided by Reinsnes's little brother, Helge Reinsnes Moen, a.k.a. Hell-G. By this point, Denisova had left the band[4] to look for work with a more stable income, which she found in April at the offices of Sámi newspaper Ságat in her home town of Tana.[94]

In January 2018, Biru Baby announced in a press release that they would be touring Europe with the Japanese band Man with a Mission. They also announced a music video for their song "Insomnia", which released on 20 January. They performed at the Trondheim Calling [no] festival on 1 February.[95][96] Their Europe tour started on 27 February at Manchester Academy, and ended on 11 March at Lido in Berlin. Man with a Mission played two more concerts in Russia.[97]

Biru Baby released a music video for their song "Inferno Awaits" on 22 November 2019, which was filmed on the stretch between the town of Girkonjárga and the Russian border.[98]
