Terveet Kädet are a legendary Finnish hardcore punk band, the first in Finland. The group was founded in Tornio in January in 1980. They have had a major influence on bands from all over the world, especially in Brazil (which some have claimed was because of a member from the leading band Olho Seco and his enthusiasm/connections to that country's scene).[citation needed] Even Sepultura's/Soulfly's Max Cavalera has mentioned Terveet Kädet as one of his all-time favourite bands.[citation needed]
The band's line-up has changed several times, and the singer Veli-Matti "Läjä" Äijälä is the only original member left. He has nowadays a very non-rock'n'roll occupation, working as a librarian.
The name "Terveet Kädet" means "Healthy Hands".
