Editorial Review:
Album Description:
Finntroll is a collaborative endeavor by six Finnish metallers that combines elements of extreme metal with traditional Finnish music. The results come to us via the 10-track release Nattfodd (translated into English as nightborn), an inexplicable listening experience that most people have never even dreamt of. Labeled as traditional pagan folk metal, Finntroll's distinct style is brutal yet surprisingly bouncy for something so heavy, as tracks like "Trollhammaren" and "Ursvamp" aptly show. Mixing the old world's melodies with today's crushing metal seems ambitious to say the least, yet Finntroll manages to pull it off without embarrassment or awkwardness. While Nattfodd is discernibly different than most other Finnish metal exports, when it comes to being bruising and foreboding, songs on this disc like "Det Iskalla Trollblod" stand up amongst its peers.

When someone says "black metal", most people immediately think of a few things. Extremely fast guitars, guttural vocals, maybe a keyboard, and lightning speed drumming. While Finntroll is technically black metal, it only shares a few aspects with the likes of Dimmu Borgir/Mayhem/1349/etc...
Nattfödd is a great album. Combining the harshness of black metal with folk instruments and polka-tunes was an act of genius. What makes it so good is how far it sometimes strays from being "metal", ...

This album was my first experience with Finntroll as I wasn't able to find their music anywhere to try. Since then I have purchased the rest of their albums. I like all of the songs on this album, but Ellytres, Trollhammaren, Det Iskalla Trollblodet and Grottans Barn are my favorites.
Fintroll combines black metal with traditional Finnish folk music. What you are left with is powerful metal guitar and drums, playing songs that are actually kind of catchy and get stuck in your head.

Finntroll are an amazing group of musicians, and Nattf?d is a truely amazing album. They make some of the most creative metal my ears have ever had the Privilege to listen to. Finntroll's music will never be "popular"; But that dosen't stop them from doing what they do best, A Crazy head-banging trollish polka fest. You wouldn't think that metal and polka (or humppa as they call it over in finland) would fit together so well, but once you listen to what these guys put out you'll soon forget that polka ...

This is my second Finntroll cd and it's far better than Jaktens Tid. This album has a different sound to it so it doesn't sound like a second Jaktens Tid which would be boring. The keyboarding on some of the songs give it a sea chanty feel to it and the guitars are fast and heavy as if they were in a race. Backing vocals shouting out "hey,hey" on some of the tracks gave it more energy. I also enjoyed the bands new growler, his voice has a darkness and heavyness that a band that sings about trolls needs. ...

I bought this album last year and it still is in heavy rotation. If you never heard of this its a mix of humppa (Finnish polka style) and black metal. It sounds like a disaster waiting to happen but its one of the most amazing things you will ever hear!
This album introduces new (and better in my opinion) lead singer Wilska (the older vocalist had to quit due to throat problems). His vocals are more menacing and troll-like, which raises the greatness of this cd.
This album seems ...
