finntroll is a band that emerged from a drunken bet from
between two finnish heavy-metal gentlemen: one bet the other
that he could not pull off a heavy-metal song in the style
of some traditional finnish polka called humppa. the end
result was that the bet was forgiven, and the results deemed
a strong-enough concept for a band. eventually, the vocalist
died of something appropriately heavy-metal like a vocal
tumor. i actually do not know their albums besides nattfodd,
but i've been playing tracks from nattfodd all the time
while driving recently, loud, and i just want to share these
because they're great

Eilytres
Trollhammeren
Det Iskalla Trollblod

just the thing if you want to crank it really loud in your
car and feel the harmonics lighting up your proprioception
in delightful ways.

grottans barn, which i always thought was called "grottka's
barn" and i was thinking it was just a chill place to
practice like squarepusher's barn, but no, apparently it
translates to "children of the cave" and what do i know
except that i like that this all has the feel of folk music
but with visceral energy you never hear much in folk; the
texture of it all when played loud... yes, like i said, try
this stuff loud, in the car

I like it and thank you for sharing, I've passed the links
onto my son who I am pretty sure will enjoy these greatly.

some 15 year ago my metal mate tried to point me to them.
thought theyre really fun but as soon as a song gets all
metal and guttural they lose me. so bet lost on me. give me
the humppa stuff though anytime .-)

was on the day camp started
