      Um, Bodom?

      I have an album or two of their, can't remember what they are right now. Judging from the vid they got a new vocalist.
      I feel festive all year round. Deal with it.

          Kalmah, this exact video, and the custom guitars they use were all discussed a few months ago:




          If you use the SEARCH FUNCTION, you'd see more threads that mention this upcoming Finnish band, including one I started 2 years ago.

            I've got 2 of their albums "Swampsong" and "They Will Return." Dudes can play but it's nothing new or innovative. I listened to thema couple times and never bothered again.

            Oh, they have a pretty funny cover of Skin Of My Teeth.

              Their new album is their best IMO.
              Similar bands... uh, Norther?

                  Yeah they're good. I have a few of their albums which I like but I wouldn't say they're ground breaking just yet. I haven't heard their latest, though. What's the obsession with swamps?
