![‘‘Looks like Kurt Cobain’’ in relief the band Tumsa expressed when they saw their new singer Mārtiņš Freimanis. Not only did Freimanis look like Cobain at the time, with his bleached hair but their debut album ‘‘Putni’’ (1998) [transl. ‘‘Birds’’] was influenced by Nirvana and Whitesnake.
In 2004, Freimanis wrote “The War Is Not Over” and gave it to Latvian beloved musicians Valters Frīdenbergs and Kārlis Būmeisters, known as Valters & Kaža. The song won the Latvian National selection and represented Latvia in the international Eurovision contest in 2005, held in Kyiv, Ukraine, finishing in the 5th place.
