November 18, 2022, 2 years ago
Just recently, Finnish folk metal superstars Korpiklaani released a new single called “Krystallomantia” which saw the band couple their trademark sound with their most politically influenced lyrics to date. The melancholic, yet upbeat anti-war song was written about the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Today, Korpiklaani are following up with an English version of the track, to make its important message more accessible for an international audience. Listen here and check out a lyric video below:
Jonne comments: "I had been working on this song for a while, but when Russia invaded Ukraine, it came natural to write these lyrics and finish the song. We were planning to release it later this year, however when Faine Misto asked us to perform at their festival in Poland as a charity event, it seemed perfect time to release it. The cover artwork, again done by Jan Yrlund, shows the impact and deep sadness we all feel. Peace & Love”
