for me it is Stratovarius its one of my favorite bands, i love everything on it , the vocals (Kotipelto is the best damn singer ever) , the guitars are just perfect, the keyboards too , bass and drums are outstanding, yes i know that most of the songs of Stratovarius have the same structure but i still love those guys;D

And the band name is taken from the city Kursk, where one of the the greatest tank fights occured during WWII. And also after the submarine.

Wait, Turisas isn't an option? What a shame, as they're the best Finnish band.

Had to vote "Other" since Ensiferum isn't on the list. Iron is one of my all time favourite albums. Great band live, too.

Ensiferum, though Nightwish (old), Children (old, too...), EToS, Kalmah, Finntroll, Moonsorrow and Turisas are amongst my favs from Finland. But Ensiferum has the brutal, the melodic, the epic and the beautiful all at the same time, so they got my vote...

Had to vote other since the best Finnish bands are all black metal. Horna, Behexen, Beherit, Satanic Warmaster and Impaled Nazarene are all worthy of being up there much more so than the likes of Nightwish, COB, Stratovarius and Ensiferum. But more underground bands will always draw less votes than the modern commercial bands, mo matter the actual quality, this is just the way it all works.

29.03.2009 - 19:35 Written by ForeverDarkWoods on 29.03.2009 at 18:27 You do the same . It has nothing to do with underground or not, because the bands which you mentioned aren't really underground, but it's a thing of different styles. You only mention black metal bands, others only mention power metal bands or folk metal bands or anything else and you can't really compare bands with different styles. Nobody can say "this is the best band from Finland!"

29.03.2009 - 22:46 Written by Diabolos on 29.03.2009 at 19:35 No they're not really underground. They're still a lot less commercial than the bands on the list though. I personally see this kind of bands as the underappriciated best metal export from Finland though. Not just these bands though, but I used them as examples. There's a lot of other underappriciated bands from Finland, like Barathrum, Thy Serpent, Warloghe, Calvarium, Black Death Ritual and a bunch of other projects. I was using the aforementioned bands to refer to the forefront of the Finnish bm movement (IMO the best out of Finnish metal) rather than anything else. There are other genres that also should receive more appriciation though. A lot of the Finnish doom metal bands outdo anything on that list. They've got fucking Unholy for fuck's sake...

29.03.2009 - 23:20 Written by ForeverDarkWoods on 29.03.2009 at 22:46 I totally agree with that, but I think the only way to create such a poll is to get the most famous bands and a "other" option, because if you include the bands that aren't famous everybody votes for other . And although I have to agree that there are many good bands, I have to say that the most famous bands are very often also the best bands (not the bands I like the most, but overall the best). Ofcourse there are many overrated and underrated bands, but also if I'm not a big fan of (for example) Metallica I have to say that they are good with what they do and they deserve respect. The same here is with CoB, Nightwish and the other bands here in that poll.

30.03.2009 - 00:09 Written by Diabolos on 29.03.2009 at 23:20 I'm sure the big names are good for some people. I'm just a lot more comfortable digging into the underground. It's the kind of mudic discovering I do best, and it reveals to me the bands I usually come to like the most (most are on the more old-school side of things). The more commercial bands are just usually not as much for me, especially the modern groovy, really cheesy or poppy ones. I make some exceptions though. Some of the commercial bands have quality or are just plain fun to listen to. It's all about how you feel personally really, and I'm digging deeper into the underground than just about everyone I know IRL, but it doesn't make those people any worse, and I'd be an asshole for thinking that. But you got to admit picking on faggy 13 year old emo kids with COB shirts is a kinda fun passtime.

30.03.2009 - 20:20 Written by Diabolos on 30.03.2009 at 14:00 IMO they're better, but that's just personal opinion I guess.

I voted for others. Let's say a lot of bands are missing in the list. I would've voted for Ensiferum, Finntroll, Kalmah, Korpiklaani, Barathrum, Arthemesia or Insomnium!
