Ever Since their International Breakthrough Album Over 10 Years Ago, Varttina have Become Icons in their Homeland of Finland. Although their Music is Based on Ancient Folk Traditions, They Are a Contemporary Band that have Achieved the Status of Popstars at Home. All their Albums have Been Released around the World, Including the UK of Course and They have Built a Solid Core of Supporters, Both Amongst the Public and the Specialist Media Alike. They Often Tour in the UK and this Summer They have Appeared at the Wychwood Festival Amongst Others. This Album is Notable for Being their Finest Collection of Songs in Some Years. Their Aggressive Vocal Style Mixed with the Gothic Lyrics and Stunning Arrangements Make them the Antithesis of the Easy Listen that Some People Imagine is the Standard in the Folk World. Although it is Right to Call it Folk Or World Music, it Certainly is Not an Easy Listening Album!
