Verikalpa are back with the third record ‘Tunturihauta’ (‘Mountain Tomb’ in English), which further refines the sound of the Finnish sextet. Fast’n’furious up-tempos, raging vocals and infectious refrains are one more time engraved in the band’s DNA, casually juggling with black, death & folk metal and symphonic elements.
’Tunturihauta’ is about battles, journeys through cold mountains, plains and forests all the way to the warmth of bonfires and taverns – this time with a very cold and dark wintery twist.
The content of the new Verikalpa album is more aggressive, wide-ranging, darker and, at the same time, dancier too…
The guys are hungrier and thirstier than ever: beer drinkers & hellraisers from the land of the thousand lakes.
