Korpiklaani Bassist Jarkko Aaltonen Discusses Latest Album, "Noita"

Korpiklaani has become one of the most popular bands in mainland Europe over the past fifteen years or so, as well as forging a solid fan base in North America. Their brand of folk metal makes as many legs dance as it does head bang and has helped their popularity soar with every passing year. Their latest album, "Noita" was released last year through Nuclear Blast Records and received solid reviews and feedback from fans.

At a recent show in London with Moonsorrow, (see review here,) I was able to sit down with the band's bass player, Jarkko Aaltonen to discuss "Noita," their touring plans and the group's bizarre animated video for the song, "A Man With A Plan." You can watch the interview below.
