hello from US! i recently found this band while browsing youtube and i love it! i think this the most bizarre unique band i ever seen to use dinosaur costumes as their thing. i like most types of heavy metal music, especially 80s power metal so this is right up my alley. i love how this band was intended for kids, but the music is so good adults can get into it too. i like how this band is trying to make heavy metal more kid friendly so a younger audience can get into this music gene. I've listened to most of this album along with some of their other songs already and i can agree, this rocks!

I agree with the fact that Milli Pilli should’ve joined on Friendship is Forever. However, on Räyh, there is another song that’s strikingly similar where her and Herra Hevisaurus duet. It’s Laulu ystävyyden, or “A Song of Friendship”. Figured I’d mention it since Räyh’s tenth anniversary is coming up on the 28th, which is Tuesday for me.

Oh man, this is such a good album. I find it so surreal these are all new songs, because I've heard to all their previous stuff over and over and over again since I was in college. Bändikouluun! is a catchy song, and it definitely belongs with another main songs like Räyh! and Juranoid! Poro soitti taikarumpua I really like, because of that descending beat, damn. Wish it was longer. Pianon kannen alla has such a good chorus and the melody I absolutely adore~ Monster-auto is a really fun song, in the same vein as Nasta lautaan! He-Sa-Mu-Ko-Mi-Ri-POM!...is that intro basically Jump from Van Halen? Ahaha, that definitely got a smile from me. Another fun song, as well! Ukko ja kookosbanjo, you're right about that banjo! I love when songs like these stick strange instruments in them! Bäng Bäng! has to be one of my faves! I actually dig Herra Hevisaurus rapping and the BPM, pfft. And I love singing along this one, BÄNG BÄNG! Ystävyys on ikuista I actually do like, because I'm a weirdo. I'm a sucker for slow songs, they tend to show off H.H.'s wonderful voice. Roinavuoren Rotta, this one I need to listen to some more...but the one time I heard it, I did like! And then 100 is just insane, haha. I have yet to watch the video...I will, very soon! A winner album, overall! The wait was worth it!

Somehow I think I like the sound of 'Ukko ja kookosbanjo' the most~

[@krakendwaggin]

It's definitely my most played song from the album.

[@anonymousskunk]

Milli Pilli is seriously underutilized, given Scandinavia's plethora of female vocal talent.

[@krakendwaggin]

Absolutely!

[@tbolmusicunderrenovation4115]

I definitely agree that this is their best album yet

[@juanarico2528]

I like the song form the band hevisaurus 100 it way better than the over heavy metal music just because i love that song my famliy they dont speak finnish they speak mexican i learn how to speak finnish ❤🤘

[@monikaradzaj7407]

I've been obsessed with Pianon kannen alla lately! Also, didn't the beginning of "He-Sa-Mu-Ko-Mi-Ri-POM!" sample a famous song from the 80s? Because I swear the opening of that song is very familiar.

[@krakendwaggin]

Probably one of a half dozen 80's songs which start in a incredibly similar way!, I'd lean towards 'Jump' by Van Halen

[@monikaradzaj7407]

@@krakendwaggin Omg that's the song I was looking for! Thank you so much! :D

[@tbolmusicunderrenovation4115]

But what are He-Sa-Mu-Ko-Mi-Ri-Pom and Bang Bang actually about?

[@krakendwaggin]

Bäng Bäng is about a bunch of trolls getting hyper on sugar and having a big party, disturbing Komppi Momppi. He-Sa-Mu... Is about the band touring and performing with their bus driver, singing 'the best song'

About the name I think "Bandikouluun!" actually means "(lets go) To Bandschool!".

[@krakendwaggin]

I'm not a native finnish speaker so i can get confused, I think it is 'lets go to band school' but I found calling it just 'Band School' was a bit easier and not technically wrong either.

[@azraelgargoyle]

@@krakendwaggin I didn't mean to be a smartass about it since I am no native finnish speaker either. I started learning it a few years ago because of this band. I think the "lets go" is more implied (i think that would be "mennään bandikouluun!") though.

[@juhis66611]

@@krakendwaggin its "to bandschool" or "to The band school"
