Children of Finland Fighting in Norway (C.O.F.F.I.N) are a four-piece hard rock & roll band from Sydney, Australia, with a lead singer on drums. They formed in 2005 as schoolmates influenced by a great love of music, skateboarding and a good-times-all-the-time attitude. Since their first gig at the age of 12 opening for The Hard-Ons at the Manly Youth Center, the band has carved out their own corner of hard, biting Australian rock n' roll. C.O.F.F.I.N have gained a passionate following for their unique take on punk and rock music, garnering acclaim for their energetic and addictive live shows combined with their lyrical activism and wailing guitars. This has earned them hundreds of gigs, headline tours and numerous festival appearances over the years. They have toured and shared the stage with many world-renowned bands such as Rose Tattoo, TSOL, Celibate Rifles, Dead Kennedys, Cosmic Psychos, Parkway Drive, Frenzal Rhomb, Misfits, Amyl and the Sniffers and the Hard Ons. C.O.F.F.I.N have recorded and released five studio albums, one live album and three EPs, all of which have sold out worldwide. Their most recent LP titled ʻAustralia Stopsʼ was released in September 2023 via Goner Records (US), Bad Vibrations (UK) and Damaged Record Co. (AU), gaining the band more recognition and acclaim worldwide. Their unique blend of hip-swinging boogie and chaotic punk live show earned the band invitations to festivals such as Meredith Music Festival (AU), The Great Escape (UK) and Gonerfest (US).
