Trelleborg - Viking Humppa from Russia

Not loving this by any stretch but it just makes me smile nevertheless. The clean vocal accent is dodgy as hell and the guitars are a bit muted judging from myspace, however I love these cheesy, triumphant parping keys. I just like the way they sound mixed with the guitar melodies. The band looks very young and there's lots of room for improvement but if you need another fix of Turisas, Finntroll with Bal Sagothian keys then Trelleborg is worth a listen.

So >>> a Russian band names themselves after a place in Sweden?

Why not Finntroll, sing in Swedish

Well, "borg" means "fort" in Swedish and the city of Trelleborg is built around a fort. I'm sure the fort in question has some historical significance that these Russians is referring to somehow.
