Artist description Urine Specimen is a one man -hard core punk band from Finland, Iisalmi. All songs and instruments are played by Aki Kuosmanen (22). Music contains message and tries to make a difference to bands who say nothing. Now looking for publisher to this new material, the demo "15 minutes of Pain". The basic idea of this music is to say something, for example you can find some anti-nazi songs from this demo. With this music it would be great if someone starts to think about the topic of song.
