I know..I'm a bad person reviving old threads, but I couldn't help it, Korpiklaani.

The only song I ever listen to by them is Wooden Pints, and only because after everyone's done laughing the party gets started.

Now I know it may seem like I'm making fun of them, but I'm not, its just a very funny song to listen to, and a funny video to watch, because the dude with the violin (or whatever) looks so uncomfortable.

FINALLY someone responds! Feel free to bump any of my threads you like, it seems no one else likes them, lol.

These guys have very fun songs indeed.

Hah, I'm slowly going through the site, finding what I like :D

There's that one dude in the Wooden Pints video just pounding away on that one drum, hilarious :D

Not many people here seem to like metal, especially the heavier stuff, just mostly the usual stuff like Sabbath and Priest, so you might have to look a few pages back. Lots of threads worthy of responses that don't even have one response :/

I have to appologize, Foxy, I do know this band, and like them. Infact, we were discussing them in another thread a few days ago in the Folk/Celtic metal thread.

They are a humorous band to listen to, and sing a lot of songs about booze, which I find amusing.

The 2009 release is most excellent, Karkelo, which in Finnish means "party" or "to have fun".

They released a picture vinyl of the song "Vodka" off this album, which is pretty cool looking:

And of course the album cover is excellent:

They do quite a bit of growling but the growling is understandable and fitting of the music.

Vodka

Kohmelo (hangover)

I went through the whole metal section, and Foxy, about 90% of the bands I've never even heard of before...so its gonna take me awhile :D

I just can't take these guys seriously though, no matter how hard I try.
