Pistooliryhmä developed as a distinct musical genre in the early 1990s, specifically in the urban centers of Helsinki and Turku. The term is derived from the word "pistooli," the Finnish word for "pistol," and suggests a connection to the raw energy and aggression of the music. Notable pistooliryhmä bands include_factory_, Juuda, and Kalmah, all of whom have been instrumental in shaping the genre.
