Smells Like Humppa

Humppa is a Fenno-Swedish polka-type music. I fucking love it, especially the way groups like Finntroll incorporate it into Metal.

But REAL Humppa is cool too, especially the way Finland's Eläkeläiset interprets songs

I can only listen to polka when it's on a Weird Al CD. The Finntroll was bearable tho.
