Tervetuloa ystävä / welcome friends! Today I present you CARDINALS FOLLY from Helsinki, Finland. Let’s cite Rafchild’s press text first: “Helsinki’s ‘Deranged Pagan Sons’ strike back with their fifth studio album ‘Defying The Righteous Way’, out March 6th 2020 on LP and CD through Germany’s @rafchildrecords . The trio of singer bassist Mikko Kääriäinen, guitarist Juho Kilpelä and drummer Joni Takkunen has carved a niche for itself within not only the thriving Finnish Doom scene but also worldwide, delivering uncompromising rough Doom Metal with elements of Heavy Metal, Black Metal and Punk and spreading this explosive mix with unforgettable live performances all over the world.  After their critically acclaimed last album ‘Deranged Pagan Sons’ the band has now collected seven new songs that bring you Doom Metal with occult and obscure lyrics, performed with Punk’s rawness, Black Metal’s harshness and tasty riffs that harken back to the glory days of Heavy Metal. ‘Defying The Righteous Way’ will be out this March, coinciding with a short jaunt through Germany together with fellow doomsters LORD VICAR.” The first thing for me to say is: Yes it I music for a special Doom niche, it is not as epic as CANDLEMASS or as melodic as SORCERER but it is an occult experience and it reminds me of MANILLA ROAD (because of its oddity) and LORD VICAR (the classic approach to Doom). The only thing you either love or hate is Count Karnstein’s voice; it is rather atypical as it works best when he growls. ‘Defying the Righteous Way’ is the band’s fifth full-length record since their formation in 2005. I am looking forward to the tour. 🤘⚔🤘 #schwermetallisch #reviews #picoftheday #nwothm #nwobhm #heavymetal #metal #rock #music #metalhead #hardrock #thrashmetal #guitar #metalmusic #metalband #metalguy #metalheads #headbanger #powermetal #guitarist #reviewoftheday #rockmusic #heavymetalmusic #speedmetal #livemusic #ironmaiden #doommetal #metallica #band #bandmerchlovers https://www.instagram.com/p/B9Jm2ZJCCD3/?igshid=2upph3m6jpcd

Cardinals Folly Drops Dark New Doomer Ahead of Doomed & Stoned Fest!

~Doomed & Stoned Debuts~

I've been a fan of CARDINALS FOLLY for a long time. I don't know, it's something about their sound that presents doom in a manner unlike any other. With that in mind, I can't wait for the Finland trio to play Doomed & Stoned Festival this weekend at Indiana City Beer! Mikko Kääriäinen (guitar, vox), Juho Kilpelä (bass), and Joni Takkunen (drums) will also put on a few select performances in Milwaukee, Chicago, and Indianapolis. Look for their upcoming split with Lucifer's Fall a few months from now on Cruz Del Sur Music. Today, Doomed & Stoned is proud to debut a brand new track from Cardinals Folly. Give ear to the weird, Gothic charm of "Walvater Proclaimed!" and check out my interview with Mikko below!

You're hopping on a plan today for your first ever visit to the United States. What are your feelings in this moment?

I only wish they would serve free drinks onboard. Otherwise it´s either gonna be a long or expensive flight. Or both? We´re excited, but I think the actual sparks will fly once we´re there.

You're playing Doomed & Stoned Festival and a few other shows, as well, correct?

Yes, Doomed & Stoned Festival, along with few other shows in the Midwest, such as Milwaukee and Chicago.

What have Cardinals Folly been working on since the last album?

We´ve been writing our fifth full-length album slowly, along with few tracks for the split with Lucifer´s Fall that we recorded a month ago. That one will be released by Cruz Del Sur Music as Vinyl & CD this winter. Also, we played few festivals in Austria & Germany, supported great bands like Spiritus Mortis and Count Raven in Finland, and just completed a small tour with Serpent Warning in Finland as well. Things have been busier than ever before, and that´s ideal...

What can you tell us about the song we're premiering today??

"Walvater Proclaimed!" is from the upcoming split LP with Lucifer´s Fall, and it´s a hazily epic doom-waltz to the world of the occult and Nordic darkness, northern attitude. The song basically follows the lore of "Walvater Unveiled" from our second album "Our Cult Continues!" (2014) and also the runic themes from "Secret of the Runes" that was on previous album "Deranged Pagan Sons" (2017). That side of our works. Tap into the mood, and let it guide you out of these dreaded lives with its genuine mysticism, earthly mana and arctic passion. Walvater is Lord!

Cardinals Folly Live!

Thursday, October 4th - Sabbatic in Milwaukee
