    Kalmah Fan Covers

    Okay, so I guess I'll kickstart the covers of the new album! Freaking love it, man. Here's "Black Marten's Trace" http://youtu.be/TztTN2kwJks

    Kalmah, Norther, And Children of Bodom

    Mors Principium Est is really, really good. They're very different stylistically from Kalmah, but they're really epic Finnish Melodic Death Metal. Also, on a side note, I've been listening to a lot of Satariel lately, who I think sort of sound a little bit like Kalmah (just the tone of their...

    Your thoughts on the new album

    I felt like this album was a step in the right direction for me, personally. It definitely feels more like the first 3 albums combined a bit with thrash (They Will Return is personally my favorite album, as I feel it exemplifies Kalmah the best--awesome, epic catchy melodies with heavy ass...

    Growling really deep..?

    Well most professional vocalists nowadays layer their vocals on-top of each other, especially for choruses. Furthermore, one really good song that I know of off the top of my head (besides Dying Fetus, of course) is "Weather the Storm" by Insomnium. That has the vocalist of Insomnium (whose...

    Cover Thread?

    So I apologize if there isn't one of these. I normally post on the Kalmah forums here, where they have a Cover Thread where people can post any of their Kalmah covers in a single thread dedicated to collecting everyone's covers in one big thread (it's not that big of a thread, but still...)...

    Growling really deep..?

    Johan is a false-chord screamer. Learn and master the false-chord technique, and after a couple of years of practice you'll be able to scream like a bawss. It's all in the stomach for the power and in the shape of the lips for the tone. The lower you want, the tighter you form your lips into an...

    Ensiferum Covers

    Here's my vocal cover of the first Ensiferum song I ever heard, Windrider. It's still probably one of my favorite all-time songs. I don't think I did the song justice but I still think it came out pretty good.

    12 gauge shirts?

    The Northern Tribe website link on Kalmah.com is completely down, now. Can anyone else get onto their site?

    Are Kalmah changing their style?

    I was definitely more than surprised when I looked up the replacement's previous band. They're fucking awful. That being said, I think that Antti and Pekka know what they're doing, and that they wouldn't have recruited him without a total understanding of how good he is technically and what he...

    looking for extremely sad songs

    I think that any doom metal can't be described by the word 'extreme'. To me, at least, extreme is usually incredibly technical, incredibly fast, and incredibly heavy. Sad, depressive music doesn't usually lend itself to speed and heaviness. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy sad stuff as much as I do...

    looking for extremely sad songs

    Almost anything Agalloch or Insomnium. Woods of Ypres too. RIP David. Although none of those bands are very extreme. I would have a hard time imagining a band that was both extreme and sad. Also, Moon of my Nights by Kalmah. I might be alone here but I happen to think that song is pretty...

    The Process of Converting the Nonbelievers

    Hey all... So I'm trying to get a couple of my friends into death metal. Bands I listen to range from Kalmah to The Faceless to Fleshgod Apocalypse and more, but that's sort of beside the point. So a few of my friends are always calling my music "shit", I'm assuming usually because of the...

    New merchandise

    Actually a poster would be pretty freaking cool. My room's full of random sports posters, and I've been looking for some metal posters--but all of the places around where I'm from that sell 'metal' posters sell those stupid Slipknot posters or dumb emo ones from bands like Asking Alexandria...

    USA tour

    This. They come to Canada every time they release a new album, now, and will probably (hopefully) come to Canada when this next album comes out, too. Obviously, I'd love it if they came to the US, and I realize that a trip to some random Canadian city to see what is essentially a 30 dollar...
