Mokoma is a five piece metal band from Lappeenranta, Finland, formed in 1996. The original lineup was MARKO ANNALA (vocals), Santtu Hämäläinen (bass) and Janne Hyrkäs (drums), Tuomo Saikkonen (guitar) and Kuisma Aalto (guitar). Their music derives from late 80’s, early 90’s Thrash and Death Metal, but Mokoma also mixes a lot of traditional Finnish melancholy in it’s music. Lyrics are in Finnish and the lyricist Marko Annala is currently considered to be one of the best Finnish lyric writers.

During those days Mokoma was signed to EMI, and Kuisma Aalto joined as a guitarist and Roope Laasonen in keyboards....
