Dammit. Crapmas has already invaded the radio and telly.

I’m fighting back with a delightfully fun video from Finntroll!  
[LINK](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEzuxkkGyWQ) You’ve got about ten seconds to figure out your speakers.

I demand more ghoulish fun!

That’s a GREAT song and video. In fact, it may have just singlehandedly restored my faith that metal artists can still be creative and original. It’s like cookie-monster meets Tom Waits, with the Misfits thrown in there for good measure.

Yeah Finntroll is awesome, as is Korpiklaani, their Finnish counterparts.

Yeah, but they sing in Swedish because “it sounds more trollish”. Their Hummpa style is distinctly more southern as well.
