History

"Kilpi" means shield in Finnish. It is the guitarist and band creator's last name, Petteri Kilpi. The band's first album, Sähkönsinistä Sinfoniaa, was released on May 28, 2003, some months after their first single, "Nerokasta Ikävää". On September 29, 2004, they released their second album, II Taso. In 2006 they released the album Kaaoksen Kuningas, and two of its songs, "Toinen Minä" and "Katharsis" were proposed to Eurovision Song Contest 2006. The band lost out to Lordi, finishing sixth overall in the Finnish televoting with the song "Toinen Minä". The band's first live-album Kaaos-Live was released in 2007. The band's vocalist, Taage Laiho, was a member of the Finnish band Altaria.

Discography
gollark: I ran a server with maybe 50 mods off a Xeon E3-1240 and 4GB of RAM a while ago, and that mostly worked.
gollark: Also, I'd recommend the Foamfix mod, which reduces RAM use a bit.
gollark: Minecraft tends to eat RAM. How much RAM?
gollark: That's doable on some server platforms/
gollark: I vaguely remember playing on a GregTech pack ages ago. I think I got to something like the low-voltage tier before accidentally exploding my base due to a voltage mismatch of some sort and quitting.
