Finnish glam rock band Negative were influenced by rock giants like Mötley Crüe and Hanoi Rocks. Negative formed in 1997 and signed a deal with Gbfam in 2002, who released their gold-selling debut, War of Love. In 2004, the band returned to the charts with its second album, Sweet & Deceitful. The group toured extensively over the next two years, and released album three, Anorectic, in 2006. In 2007, the band was named Best Finnish Act at the MTV Video Music Awards. A double-DVD overview of Negative's career, In the Eye of the Hurricane, and album number four, Karma Killer, were released in 2008. ~ Chris True
