Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Finnish sextet's second full-length album solidifies their signature integration of heavy metal riffing with traditional humppa music. Utilizing violins, accordions, and flutes alongside electric guitars, the record is characterized by its relentlessly upbeat, alcohol-fueled party atmosphere and deep reverence for forest mythology.
