Korpiklaani announce new album “Rankarumpu”

Finnish folk metal outfit Korpiklaani have announced their new studio album, “Rankarumpu”, out on April 05, 2024 via Nuclear Blast. “Rankarumpu”, like the two previous records, was executed with recording/mixing engineer and producer Janne Saksa.

Jonne Järvelä said:

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.

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.
