Fivestar Prophet hails from Helsinki, Finland and have their origins in a band called L-60. L-60 traces its roots back to 2001 when the band first formed. The years went by and in 2008 the band had become frustrated and tired. The group had a strong desire to make a change in their music direction along with being more Christ-focused within their lyrics.
On October 26, 2009 frontman-Olli Helenius relayed to the other band members his ideas of reinventing the group under the new name 'Fivestar Prophet'. The group quickly got on board with the new proposed direction and 'Fivestar Prophet' was soon launched into reality.
Fivestar Prophet's mission and goal is to be a band of servants serving God by delivering a strong message about the truths of Jesus Christ.

In 2010 Fivestar Prophet released their full-length debut album simply titled 'Enemy' on Finngospel Records.
'Enemy' was recorded & mixed at Pathos Music with the album being mastered at Chartmakers. With their 2010 debut Fivestar Prophet unleashes a heavy fresh sounding recording that will quickly grab ones attention. The band's musical style is more on the lines of Nu Metal or Nu Hard Rock combined with classic Metal guitar riffs and slight touches of Techno. Even though the group adds some newer elements to their arrangements, the band is first and foremost a hard hitting Metal outfit with enough old school techniques to make everyone happy. The guitars are upfront in the mix where they should be for a Metal band but without drowning out the vocalist. The vocal work of frontman-Olli Helenius deserves to be placed amongst some of the better vocalists such as Rob Rock, Adam lee Kemp(Crystavox), and Les Carlson(Bloodgood). Olli's delivery meshes perfectly with the bands musical style and the albums production is top of the line.

The band's message is overtly Christ centered as one can see in the following lyrics:
Save Us(From Ourselves)
Sleepwalking
Night is calling
All freaks will come alive
Join the parade
Feel no shame
Streets filled
With lonely Souls
Only shallow signs
Left of humanity
The truth denied
Lead to Insanity
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Holy one please save us from ourselves
Shadows fading
Day breaking
New mercy
New day is taking
Over this darkness
No quilt and no more blame
Put your trust in Him
He'll show the way
Just lift up your hands up and say
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Holy on please save us from ourselves
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus Save Us
Jesus Save Us
Jesus Save Us
Sleepwalking
Night is calling
All freaks will come alive
Join the parade
Feel no shame
Streets filled
With lonely Souls
Only shallow signs
Left of humanity
The truth denied
Lead to Insanity
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Holy one please save us from ourselves
Shadows fading
Day breaking
New mercy
New day is taking
Over this darkness
No quilt and no more blame
Put your trust in Him
He'll show the way
Just lift up your hands up and say
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Holy on please save us from ourselves
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Jesus Save Us
Jesus Save Us
Jesus Save Us
