KORPIKLAANI Interviewed In Vancouver (Video)
December 13, 2011Char Tupper of MetalTitans.com conducted an interview with bassist Jarkko Aaltonen of Finnish folk metallers KORPIKLAANI on December 3, 2011 at the Rickshaw Theatre in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. You can now watch the chat below.
KORPIKLAANI is currently taking part in the "Ukon Wacka" North American tour with support from Russia's ARKONA. POLKADOT CADAVER and FORGED IN FLAMES complete the package.
KORPIKLAANI recently parted ways with longtime violinist Jaakko "Hittavainen" Lemmetty and replaced him with "a young prodigy" by the name of Teemu Eerola. According to a press release, "There is a mutual understanding between [Hittavainen] and the rest of the band and there is no big drama involved. His personal health issues made the constant touring and recording impossible."
Eerola made his live debut with KORPIKLAANI on September 24 in Rotterdam, Holland.
KORPIKLAANI's latest album, "Ukon Wacka", was released in North America on February 25 via Nuclear Blast Records.
