Teräsbetoni is a Finnish power metal band formed in Tampere in 2002. Fronted by vocalist Jarkko Ahola, the group became known for its lyrics inspired by heroism as well as its energetic live performances. Teräsbetoni represented Finland in the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest with the song "Missä miehet ratsastaa," reaching the final and finishing 22nd. The band released four studio albums—Metallitotuus (2005), Vaadimme metallia (2006), Myrskyntuoja (2008), and Maailma tarvitsee sankareita (2010)—before announcing an indefinite hiatus in 2011. Although no longer active as a full-time band, Teräsbetoni has reunited for occasional performances, including supporting Manowar in Helsinki in 2014.
