The 69 Eyes is a Finnish gothic rock band that emerged in the late 1980s. Known for their blend of rock, glam metal, and punk influences, they have been dubbed the "Helsinki Vampires" due to their dark, vampiric aesthetics and lyrics. The band's lineup, including vocalist Jyrki 69 and guitarist Bazie, has remained largely consistent over the years, contributing to their distinctive sound. Their 2000 album, "Blessed Be," marked a significant shift towards gothic rock and helped to solidify their place in the music scene.
