Korpiklaani Interview

Sunday July 16, 2006
Korpiklaani is a Finnish band that combines metal and traditional folk elements. It's filled with both party anthems and mellower songs. I interviewed bass player Jarkko Aaltonen, who fills us in on the band's latest album Tales Along This Road, which has both Finnish and English lyrics. Metal is very popular in Finland, with albums regularly making the charts. And of course Korpiklaani's countrymen Lordi recently won Eurovision, drawing even more attention to the country and their metal scene.
