I've been listening to Finntroll for many a year now and it's only been recently that I actually saw a picture of them. For some reason, I never bothered to look before, I kinda figured they'd look like all those other folky pagany metal bands - beardy, hairy, slightly overweight and probably wearing furs/hemp tunics (see fig. A).

How wrong I was.
His name is Vreth and I've never heard him sing (I only have Finntroll's older records) however, I don't really care. I'd be quite happy if this guy just stood there with his shirt off, reading the phonebook for half an hour:

Isn't he pretty?!
I have now totally reconsidered going to see them at the Underworld. J, if you're reading this, get tickets!!! Get them now!
