Saattoväki was formed in Tampere at the very beginning of the year 2010, by Jukka-Pekka Rouhento, Ville Rouhiainen and Pekko Vilpola (Vulvarine, Taistelukala). The idea was to play oldschool death metal, make good songs with out any pressures and in good, creative atmosphere. A little Later that year Jesse Tikka joined the band and they made their first demo with session drummer Ville Aatsinki (Diesel Skull, Wömit Angel, Drawn Awake). The demo was made somewhat hastily, so they decided not to make physical release of it.

After the first demo drummer Juho Savikurki (Kaarnekorpi, Äkä) joined their ranks and the band started to get ready for gigs. First gig was held at bar Jack the Rooster in Tampere, second at 5th of May 2011. Due to some random reasons the band developed slowly, Jesse Tikka leaved the band and Ville Viertola joined in for guitar duties, Pekko Vilpola shifted to bass. After the dust had cleared, on the autumn 2011 recordings of second demo started. Process was not fast due to other responsibilities of band's members, and this time they wanted to make things properly!

After the instruments were recorded Ville Rouhiainen left the band in mutual agreement. Luckily new singer was quite easily found, Jarno Salo (ex-Siknis, ex-Dethera, ex-Jarrusukat, Routakehä (live)) took over the vocal duties. Hard training started, all the lyrics were written again and in the summer of 2012 the second Saattoväki's demo 'Hammer' was finally ready to be released.
