Finnish folk metal superstars KORPIKLAANI have released a brand new single called Saunaan, the first song to whet your appetite for their upcoming new studio album, Rankarumpu, which is due to be released on April 5, 2024. The pre-order for the album starts today.
Rankarumpu, like the two previous records, was executed with recording/mixing engineer and producer Janne Saksa. It seems that the collaboration between the band and Saksa has reached a whole new level with Rankarumpu.
KORPIKLAANI’s twelfth studio album is once again full of tasty folk metal and its different flavors, 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.
