finland might have more snow than i do right now...


ok folks, more finnish free-folk for you today!

here we've got an album by that ever-so enchanting chanteuse Kuupuu entitled "Kulta Sulka." this album is a little more ADD than some of her counterparts, sounding at times closer to the weirdness of Anaksimandros or Kemialliset Ystavat than the more homely sounds of Lau Nau. there's also hints of american acts like Grouper or Fursaxa in her sound, but it's still very strictly Finnish. loads of reverb drenched vocals and delay pedals being put to full use here, but this is not a noise album. it's very pretty in an odd sort of way, and striking how memorable these songs are (even though i don't understand a word of what she is singing when she is singing...)

it snowed about 10 inches here last night. fucking nuts.

warm up with this, folks.
