AM I BLOOD originated in Finland, where the guitarist Janne Kerminen formed the band in 1992 with Pasi Koskinen. Their ways separated in1995 just one month before the recordings of debut album "Natural Mutation -95" (under name St.Mucus). It was a tough place `coz so far Kerminen had only played guitar in the band, but he decided to handle the situation. After a few weeks rehearsing all the vocal lines, they went to studio without hesitation and in six days they did what was meant to do. The first album represented more grunge and rock influences, but after Kerminen started to wrote all the songs and take care of vocals their direction developed heavier and melodical. Also their former name was replaced for AIB, because it was a time to make innovations in all aspects. The second selftitled album "Am I Blood-97" was distributed in Europe and it was voted as "The album of the month" in german Rock Hard Magazine. They did succeed in building the band a very comfortable fan base across Europe. "Agitation-98", delivery of the catchy rhythms which are indicative of AIB is perfect. The album (produced by Daniel Bergstrand. Stuck Mojo, Meshuggah etc.) gained a huge amount of four or five star reviews and lots of radio powerplay across the world. Since the band website was created in 1999, it?s been very stimulating to see how the visitors have increased on their pages every week.
