Finnish folk metal superstars KORPIKLAANI are happy to unveil their newest single and music video, Oraakkelit. It’s the third single from their upcoming new studio album, Rankarumpu, which is due to be released on April 5 2024.
KORPIKLAANI’s twelfth studio album is once again full of tasty folk metal and its different flavours, but it also offers new spices. One of the most wonderful features of Rankarumpu is related to the folk instruments.
Although KORPIKLAANI has done one or maybe even a couple of unforgettable things in the realm of folk metal, this time new permanent member Olli Vänskä‘s violin and Sami Perttula‘s accordion may surprise even die-hard fans.
Oraakkelit shows a darker, more serious side of KORPIKLAANI and is a nice contrast to the happier, more upbeat previous singles, Saunaan and Aita. The mood of the song has been perfectly captured by a mystical and visually stunning video directed by Vesa Ranta.
