Korpiklaani are one of the bands most notorious for churning out album after meaningless album with seemingly little thought or care. It is with some surprise then that Manala, even still conforming to the one-album-per-year rule, is actually quite alright.

Good sarcasm.

Its going to be (and already has been) a case of same shit different day with this band. Maybe they should take some time off rather than hammering out the same album year in year out.

Yeah, definitely.
One of the most shitty bands ever existed. But at least they're hilarious...

When I first received the notification I thought I was being bashed by an angry fanboy, But yeah your right they are hilarious, To me this band is only good if your hammered and need some party music, But sober? meh.

I would've thought that, too. When you badmouth a stupid band like this it's likely you'll get attacked by fanboys who think you don't understand the extremely soulful and deep musical approach of these "artists". Thankfully we're not the only ones who hate on this bunch of clowns.

Pretty good comedic relief in the metal scene, these guys are. Not worth much beyond a pity laugh when drunkenly dancing to something by David Guetta.

On my first listen, I think this is actually pretty good compared to the awful stuff they have been putting out.

I like it. Some song are better in Finnish, some in English.
I expected some songs about booze, but... eh, maybe next time.

Mixed reactions about this album. Some of the songs are very well executed while their gotta some parts where I thought "nah, it's just like their old based-concept stuff". Nevertheless, 8 from my side( which is really good for the album).

Funny song: "Ruuminmultaa", idk what the fuck it means but wow what a catchy shit it is. Perfect background music for clowns party or something.
