I admire how these guys keep churning albums on a regular basis. Im not done listening to the last one and now we've got a new one!

Indeed! They release a new record every year! It's quite fascinating.

P.S. I want to dedicate this review to the hope that our colleague Kayla is feeling better, has found her way and can rejoin the team.

I'm touched! I'm feeling much better these days; hopefully I'll shed the last bits of illness soon.

As far as the album goes, I concur. There's a couple standout songs ("Tapporauta" and "Kipakka" tend to stick with me) but the rest tends to fade into the background a lot more than anything else in their catalogue.

I have their two albums before this, and they're not really growing on me. I know it's campside partytime drinkbeer happyfriends folkmusic, but making a new album a year doesn't necessarily mean a good new album a year.

True....I wish they combined the best songs on this album and last years album instead of releasing this much material with some average songs.

They need to experiment more. The formula is getting old...
