MANITOU To Celebrate Anniversary With Hometown Gigs

December 4, 2007

Finnish traditional heavy metal band MANITOU, which features in its ranks members of OMNIUM GATHERUM, MALPRACTICE and KAIHORO, will celebrate its 10th anniversary with two hometown gigs this weekend:

Dec. 07 - Nuorisotalo - Kotka
Dec. 08 - Sam's Pub - Karhula

MANITOU's third album, "No Signs of Wisdom", was released in July via Metal Heaven. The CD was recorded at SouthEastSounds Studio in Karhula, Finland with producer Teemu Aalto (OMNIUM GATHERUM, SINAMORE) and was mastered at Chartmakers. According to a press release, the new material appeals to fans of "IRON MAIDEN, QUEENSRŸCHE, ANNIHILATOR, DIO, TAROT, WHITESNAKE... Traditional heavy metal, that is!"

MANITOU released its second full-length album, "Deadlock", in March 2006 through Firebox.
