Pecu Cinnari Feb 20 1966 - Sept 10 2016

We're devastated to inform that our dear drummer Pecu Cinnari has passed away last night due to a long-term illness.

Tour with Pain cancelled

UPDATE: 26.08.11 20:50
As initially also reported, Tarot's participation in the European tour with Pain has been cancelled. However, instead of making an excuse and blaming the finances for it, the actual reason for our cancellation is that there's a really serious illness in the family of one of our band members. At first we thought this was too personal to share, but in the end, the truth is always better. We are sorry we couldn't come over, another day friends...

The Eartshaker 2007 tour has been cancelled

Tarot is very sorry for the cancelling of the Earthshaker 2007 tour.

This is really sad to us and you fans.
You were great at the gigs that we were able to play. So great thanks to all of you, we love you.

Metallysee agency fucked up the whole tour and we couldn't do anything else than getting ourselves back to home. Each band on the tour tried to do all the gigs, but Metallysee simply didn't handle any of the promised things.

The backline was shitty and different than what it was said in the contract. They couldn’t take care any of the expenses - buses, food, drinks, even the tour manager got lost in the beginning of the tour and so on. There came these two guys to trying fix things that could possible be fixed, but obviously they couldn’t do miracles.

Everyday started by the rumouring…are we going to do the today's gig or not, do we have to cancel the tour today, or what? And the next day started the same way. It was really disturbing and made us all feel down.

The bus company even put us on the streets of Hamburg for the one day off because they didn’t get any money from Metallysee to carry on. All the tour buses were old, dirty and didn’t have enough space to begin with. They even gave us (Troll and Tarot) a bus that didn’t have enough beds for all the band members and techs. Fuck Metallysee!

After the last gig we made in Hirsch we heard it was done. We didn’t receive any reasonable information what was going on, who’s going where or how to arrange the people or the equipment back to home. The Earthshaker manager came by and gave us some excuses and helped us out so that we could find our way to the Berlin airport by night.

All the bands had to get away from the tour at their own expense. Metallysee didn’t pay any of the flights. I got home yesterday evening ‘cos we couldn't get flight tickets earlier and had to spend one more night in a hotel in Berlin at our own expense with Tommi and Marco.

The Sweden guys and girls had to go home by train from Nuernburg, right after their gig. They didn’t even have enough time to get a shower. Can you believe that?

All this kind of shit we got from Metallysee every day, incredible? It is certain that our managements will never do any kind of co-operation with this company and if they don’t take their responsibility on this shit, we are eventually going to see them in court.

Yours, Zac

Service break

After spending one week offline, wod.net is finally back in business. What happened was that our domain registrars managed to delay a "proceeding" domain transfer giftedly by over two weeks and all we could do was wait standing our feet in the sh*t (but fist to the sky). But now we are there. And safe. Life seems to be hard sometimes...

New Tarot-shirts available

Tarot-shirts with new fabulous Tarzan-theme can now be bought from verkkopaita.com and from Levykauppa Äx (Oulu, Kuopio, Turku)

Ordering Tarot albums

We've received lots of questions about where to get Tarot albums. If your local record shop doesn't have Tarot albums, the latest album and also the compilation album Shining Black (which covers songs from each older albums) can be ordered online for example through Cdon.com. The older albums are still waiting to be re-issued...
