A month's worth of reasons to vote Helsinki in 2017, part 2

Yes, I'm posting a Finnish heavy metal video every day in June in support of the Helsinki in 2017 Worldcon bid. Longer explanation here.

Today's song is from Kuolemanlaakso (which allegedly means "Death Valley" in Finnish), a band heavily inspired by Tom G. Warrior's latest avant-garde/doom/gothic metal project, Triptykon. Since I love Triptykon, it's no surprise that I love Kuolemanlaakso, too. This is "Ikiuni":

Yay! Finnish metal! (Korpiklaani is my favorite band.)

Korpiklaani are great, and will certainly feature in this series at some point.

I caught them on their current tour, with Ensiferum. One of the best shows I've ever been to. Their new album is diggity.
