History
Absoluuttinen Nollapiste started in June 1991, when Tommi Liimatta was on his confirmation camp in Nuasjärvi, Sotkamo. There he had an idea of putting together a rock band. The members of the upcoming band all lived in the same neighborhood in Rovaniemi. Tommi Liimatta (born in Kemi, 1976, vocals and wind instruments), Tomi Krutsin (born in Rovaniemi, 1976, drums) and Aki Lääkkölä (born in Rovaniemi, 1976, guitar and keyboards) had other groups before. The band's first bassist, Matti Kettunen was replaced in November 1991 with Aake Otsala (born in Kuopio, 1976), and a year later, the second guitarist, Jukka Leinonen left the band. They played in this line-up for about 7 years. Sometime in 1999, Teemu Eskelinen joined the band as a backup vocalist.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism.... Drunk with self-love, criticism has hugely overestimated the centrality of language to western culture. It has failed to see the electrifying sign language of images.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“False history gets made all day, any day,
the truth of the new is never on the news
False history gets written every day
...
the lesbian archaeologist watches herself
sifting her own life out from the shards she’s piecing,
asking the clay all questions but her own.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“The history of philosophy is to a great extent that of a certain clash of human temperaments.”
—William James (1842–1910)
