Back in 2005 - Korpiklaani (SOtD MDLXXXIX)

Back in 2005, Korpiklaani released Voice Of Wilderness.
It was the fifth album from the Finnish Folk Metal band.

Korpiklaani - Hunting Song

Korpiklaani - Noita (SOtD MCDXCVII)

Korpiklaani has just released their twelfth album.
Noita is the latest effort from the Finnish Folk Metal band.

Korpiklaani - Lempo

Sabaton + Korpiklaani + Tyr @ Hard Club, Oporto (SOtD MCCCLXII)

Yesterday, I had the privilege of seeing this awesome show.
Týr was top notch. I had no idea of how amazing they sound live. Loved the set list. Great stuff!
Korpiklaani was a bit below what I was expecting. The voice started two low on the first songs, and I think they focused two much on the last album. I missed Tequila. Vodka and Rauta, the two last songs, were the highlights.
Sabaton was simply out of this earth! The crowd was wild, and they were so happy and effusive on stage, that there was instant chemistry. Pure magic on top of an almost perfect set list!

Here are three of the songs that were highlights yesterday:

Týr - Blood of Heroes



Korpiklaani - Vodka



Sabaton - Carolus Rex

Korpiklaani - Manala (SOtD DL)

For those of you following the blog, it's no secret that Korpiklaani is one of my favourite Folk Metal bands.
The Finnish band is extremely productive and has released now their eleventh record, Manala.

Korpiklaani - Rauta
