Teemu Kiiskilä
Guitarist/Multi-Instrumentalist, who also spends time with his machines.


On tour At The End comes with a package of well trained sci-fi nerds and glam rockers. Also sometimes with just Jarno-Erik, Teemu and their droids. Droids are much cheaper than living organisms.

History :

It wasn't easy living in a little place like Keminmaa or Tornio. For a annoying little smartass like Jarno-Erik was, it was terrible. Playing ice hockey and football, or at least trying, could have been the easy thing to do. But it wasn't that fun.

When he became older, he had another option: playing Metallica in a band. That wasn't fun either because everyone was doing that already. Life sure seemed boring, and it would have been the perfect time to start sniffing glue and gasoline, like some of his friends discovered. Luckily granpa bought a piano for him.

It took some years, a few bands, many instruments and computer programs (and unfortunate relationships probably) to find out his way with music. It was called Erik & The Roses From Outerspace. It was weird, not quite pop, not rock, not progressive nor electro. It was something between. Songs were kinda catchy, but there was still something missing.

But then, in year 2005 in Oulu, he met another young man, with much more experience in bands and recording studios, and passion with indie music. Teemu helped him to start a new band for his songs. At the beginning it was called Flux Liner, (a re-engineered alien spacecraft) later it was to be known as At The End.

Their first three song ep "Cycle" was recorded in March 2006 with keyboardist Jussi Kauppila, drummer Petri Myllykangas and bassist Marko Tirkkonen. It sounded pretty good, and was considered by Jussi Ruusila in Rumba's review as "one of the best debuts in 2006.

Antilove, a promotional single, recorded with Jussi Kauppila, bassist Aleksi Kastelli and drummer Teemu Mustonen, was released in spring 2007.

But J-E still missed his loved ones; the computer programs that made his life more enjoyable for so many years. So in 2007 he made a decision. To move to Helsinki and bring back the electronic feel from his Erik & The Roses- project. Now the music sounds like it should sound. And that is awesome.

This is where we are now...
