Korpiklaani have announced the name and release date of their upcoming new studio album, the successor to 2021's Jylhä. Dubbed Rankarumpu, it will land in stores on on April 5th, 2024. In addition, the Finns have revealed their massive touring plans for 2024, starting with an extensive UK tour with Alestorm and Heidevolk in February and March, two album release shows in Mexico on April 5th and 6th, followed by a North American tour with Visions Of Atlantis and Illumishade in April and May, a good number of big European Summer festivals and European tour towards the end of the year.

"Whenever I start writing something new, the material always finds its own path without any forcing - that stuff just comes from somewhere deep inside me, completely naturally", states Jonne Järvelä.

"Anyway, when I started to come up with the material for Rankarumpu, I set myself a goal. A couple of previous records, especially Kulkija (2018), were a bit slower as a whole, so this time I wanted to benefit from a bit faster tempos - a bit like the old Korpiklaani."
