Less Than Three

About Less Than Three
LESS THAN THREE started as the bedroom project of Jesse Soiletsalo in 2010. After composing a dozen songs Jesse wanted to record the tracks properly with a real drummer, so Samuli Mikkonen (KORPIKLAANI, ex-PROFANE OMEN) was chosen to help with the job. After trying out a couple of singers the match was found with Tommy Tuovinen (MYGRAIN). The band became whole after Pyry Hanski (ex-BEFORE THE DAWN, MÖRBID VOMIT) and Ari-Pekka Repo (ex-MURDERSHOCK) joined as bassist and second guitarist respectively. In 2015 the band went through some lineup changes. Dozen of new songs were already fleshed out and even recorded for the next release, but without the right line-up it felt redundant to release them. The solution needed some time but was to be found closer than one might think through a mutual friend, Viljami Kurki (Bügenhagen, ex- Profane Omen), who suggested Mikko Herranen (Misterer) would be a perfect fit for the band as the new vocalist. Mikko joined the fold as a vocalist accompanied with Pekka Okuloff (ex-Ghoul Patrol) as a lyricist in 2022 and the band started immediately to build new songs that resembled where the band is at as of now. This bloomed the 2022 EP “Another Random Value”. "Not Enough" Single was released in February 2024 with lyrics and bass by Angelo Roviello. The first "Less Than Three" EP was completed and released in March 2013. After releasing their debut EP the band was ready to hit the stage, opening for acts such as SCAR SYMMETRY and GLORIA MORTI. Their record garnered positive reviews and reception, and after firmly establishing themselves as a captivating live act, LT3 was ready for their second wave. "The Black Box" EP was recorded during the Spring of 2014 and was released October 2014, by the unsigned band itself. Along the recording process of the new EP, Less Than Three also did a cover version of Meshuggah’s oldie but goldie track, “Future Breed Machine” and decided to release a studio video of it as a “teaser” for the EP.
