BastardSonOfGod said:Finntroll is Trollish metal (I don't know if I wrote Trollish correctly?!?!?!?!), The trolls and the vikings are enemies, well at least in the nordic mithology...
yep, because it sounds so "damn trollish".Ayr said:=)
by the way, is it true that they sing in Swedish, although they are Finnish?

Ayr said:Black Session, why are you talking about the USA? Noone from there on this thread so far. Doubt that viking/folk-metal bands will travel to Canada/Australia anytime soon either... =(
BastardSonOfGod said:Yeah... That's a good question... Why they sing in Swedish if they are Finnish????
No, they weren't...Hypnos said:i've seen them at the Summerbreeze 04. watched the first 3 songs and left then cause they were booring...
M.Lehto said:Because Finland has 2 official languages, Finnish and Swedish and if I remember right, the original vocalist was Finlands Swedish.

BastardSonOfGod said:Oh... that guy (Vocalist) commit suicide right???? or was the guitar player????
Lietuvis said:1. Nobody in Finntroll commited suicide.
2. Somnium (the guitar-player) died by falling from a bridge in Helsinki. This happened simply because he was drunk as fuck.
3. Finntroll's original vocalist, Katla, chose to write lyrics in Swedish, because he was a Swede living in Finland, and it was his native tongue. He had to quit the band, because of a tumor he got from growling...
-People, get your facts together before even ATTEMPTING to explain something about Finntroll. Otherwise, the trolls will come for you.
