About "Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle" by Korpiklaani
Korpiklaani's 'Mettänpeiton Valtiaalle'—'To the Ruler of the Forest's Coverlet'—is a pagan hymn wrapped in a metal assault. The tension is between reverence for the wild and the sheer, headbanging joy of invoking it. Nature here is both sanctuary and threat.
