The origins of the band can be traced back to 2003, when 5 schoolboys from Nokia founded the band. In the beginning, we were constantly accused of trying to emulate big brother's success, simply because Ville happened to be Jonne Aaron's little brother. Hard work, ambition, and a new lineup with its own plans and objectives and the band hopes to see new people, hungry for good music, at their gigs, to discover Flinch's happy, gloomy, yet hopeful world. Straying from big brother's example, Flinch perform in Finnish, although they share the target audience- good rock music lovers.
Although the future's bright, the stars in the sky illuminate a dark matter, some of the band's ex-members plan to sue for the right to the name Flinch with the former band member claiming that he and Ville decided on the band's name together. The old band members disquiet began in January 2008, when "Taivas Tähtiverhoineen" began playing on the radio. The second single from the album is called "1986", and comes from the upcoming album, "Irrallaan", which contains both singles, and a total of 10 good rock songs.
Flinch. From a school band, to a melodic, energetic Finnish rock Hornet, Flinch released their new album "Irrallaan" on 9.4.2008. The band's second album was produced by Ville's elder brother, Jonne Aaron, best known as the frontman of Negative. The band's debut album "Kuvastin" was released in 2006, and reached number 17 on the official Finnish album chart. The two singles released from the album "Liikaa" and "Tuulet" reached number 2 and 3 respectively on the single charts.
A complete change of lineup took place during spring 2007, leaving only the band's co-founder and frontman, Ville from the original lineup. Commenting on the split, Ville states that "The original lineup reached a point where there was no other option than to split. The band members wanted to do other things. Despite the change in our lineup, the fans have stayed with us faithfully, and others too have found their way to gigs, and have enjoyed themselves! The feedback so far has been positive."
2007年春季樂隊徹底改變了陣容，僅留下樂隊的創始人之一和主唱，Ville。對於陣容發生如此大的變化，他的解釋是：“這個樂隊已經到了除了分裂就沒有其他選擇的地步，樂隊成員想要做其他的事情。儘管陣容改變了，FANS依舊忠實的追隨我們，其他的成員也享受著以自己的方式來演出（原文為and others too have found their way to gigs，此處不知VILLE是在指樂隊現在的成員保持自己的風格，還是指原成員在樂隊分裂後繼續著演出）使自己快樂。迄今為止反饋是積極的。”
