The forthcoming album is the first KORPIKLAANI release to feature new accordion player Sami Perttula. Perttula's joining the band has added another dimension in the band's folk arrangements alongside Fiddler Tuomas Rounakari. Jan Yrlund (MANOWAR, SIRENIA etc), of Darkgrove Design, created the artwork.
Yrlund has created all of the KORPIKLAANI artwork in recent years and once again has come up with another masterpiece.
