2012 sophomore album from the Finnish Indie Pop group formed by Jessika Rapo (vocalist for Le Futur Pompiste) and Henry Ojala (ex-drummer for Cats on Fire). teamed up to form Burning Hearts in 2006. In fall 2011, Johan Ekstroem & Niko Kivikangas joined the band as the live line-up was renewed. Their 2nd full-length album, "Extinctions", was written as a consequence of many tragical stories that in a way or another touched the band. Quite a few of the songs are dedicated to persons or creatures that no longer exist. Even if human tragedies inpired the writing & death is present in nearly all the songs, the sound remains vivid and full of hope.
