Bends Bends
Hells Triangle - Song number (1). As the starting song, Bends works like a charm (well, on our point of view it does...) with it's glue-like memorable lead guitars, and steadily progressing onward pace.
Finally Finally
Hells Triangle - Song number (2). Finally is H.T's solution to a little bit more powerpopish approach on life, although it's full and warm guitarwalls tell a bit of a different story.
1000times 1000times
Hells Triangle - Song number (3). 1000times is maybe the most rocking, most uncontrolled part of H.T, with some raspy vocals, riffs filled with energy and almost majestic chorus.
Some people Some people
The starting track of "Plan B". Some people is a very classic Beaner-track, a straightforward rock-song with loads of honesty.
Evelyn (Feat. Saara jokiaho & Henna Juvonen) Evelyn (Feat. Saara jokiaho & Henna Juvonen)
Our first try in the wonderful world of pop. Still recognisable as our own with buzzing distortions, Evelyn is maybe the most melodic piece of work we've ever acquired. Maybe some credit goes to the two Finnish poppers who helped us out a little.

Happened so far:
1996: Three friends facinated about all kinds of rockmusic and it's sideproducts decide to form a band, because it simply feels like the right thing to do. The band gets named as Downmind, then changed later to Robin, and finally converted to what it is today; Beaner. The inventor of the name denies all accusations of any positive or negative meaning withing the name, quote; It just was a cool word, for ***** sake!. It really even isn't, bu it stuck, so it stayed. At this time, the current bassartist Juki played guitar and sang, drummer Jukka played bass, and only Ville had found his calling with his guitar.
1998: After several morally legendary straightforward punkrocksongs, the band experienced a kick forward as the lead guitarist Jp joined the band. Alongside him emerged ambitious leads, half-solos, solos and harmonies in a way never seen before. After joining, Jp has been highly resposible for the bands enhanced performance, as well as many newlyborn favourite songs... and all their complicites...
2002: The singer for some time Aapo Juusti got called to serve in the army, and the replacement was found from Helsinki University, in the form of Juki's bud, Samu. The windy singer's post got filled, and by suprise, the still living classic lineup of the band was formed. Easy is not quite the word to describe what happened then, as The 303 Demo from the same year proves... made in haste and absolutely with no knowledge what so ever; it serves best as frisbee.
2003: As an instant remedy to the failure, a 16-song live cd was recorded during the insanely busy spring tour. And admittedly it is of a ridiculous quality, but also strangely sincere and hilarious with it's strange intros, screwups and odd energy.
2004: By the next spring, it was time to put out The Mansion Days, recorded at a mansion-like house of a friend of ours, Joonas Naskali (technoartist Retro Star). The impressive covers made by the bands silent member Samuli Landen got it attention maybe more than it deserved, and as the musical outcome was still a bit light and unfinished, the decision to record more soon got made faster then one can say studio. By late autumn, Plan B was ready and out, sounding better than ever and looking better than ever, once again thanks to Samuli. The improved mixing and sound is all thanks to Janne The Boss Joutsenniemi of SubUrban Tribe, who recorded us at The MD Studio in Munkkiniemi. He truly is a professional in the most positive sense of the word.
2005: As the end of 2005 started closing in, we figured it might be the best get something going egain, and as we we're happy in considerable amounts regarding the result of our previous recording in Munkkiniemi, we decided to head back to the same place and do it all over again! That we did, and this time everything seemed a tiny bit easier and more familiar than before, and the outcome is easily the best Beaner ever, and maybe even the most ambitious Beaner ever...Have you performed in front of an audience?Of course we do... mostly anywhere we can! One of the best moments have absolutely been last springs student party at the Helsinki University, and this springs third visit to the small but crowded Factory.
Your musical influences
There are five of us in the band and all of us have completely different musical tastees... we've been told the effect of for example; Weezer, The Ramones, Bad Religion, Pennywise, New Found Glory etc, can be heard on some of our songs. But who's to tell?
