Moottörin Jyrinä

Moottörin Jyrinä (trans. "Rumble of [an] engine", [moːtorin jyrinæ]) is a children's heavy metal band from Helsinki, Finland.

Moottörin Jyrinä appearing in the Seikkisrock event at the adventure park in Turku, Finland in summer 2011.

Moottörin Jyrinä plays cover songs from classic 1980s heavy metal songs (from such bands as Iron Maiden, Motörhead and Ozzy Osbourne), with new, child-friendly Finnish language lyrics. Most of the lyrics have an educational tone. The band appears in both children's and adults' events.

The name of the band is a parody of Motörhead. The first umlaut is gratuitous but the second is not, in properly grammatical Finnish the name would be "Moottorin jyrinä".
