100 great, interesting and quite recent Finnish albums and EP:s that are available on Spotify
Yes, this is post number 100 and to celebrate I’ll link you 100 great, interesting and quite recent Finnish albums and EP:s that are available on Spotify. It’ll mostly be indie bands (or finndie bands) but also some other stuff. And so, in no particular order, 100 albums and EPs let’s go!
I’m getting a record player in a week’s time.
This is also known as ‘Monday’ in my world.
*Grumble. I do have to get up and do things today, but I’d really like to stay in bed & drink tea.*
Our ep, titled AAVVAV is out on March 1st as a limited edition cassette. There will also be a download version.
Tracklist:
1. Books
2. I Felt the Ocean
3. Lifelong
4. Valleys and Peaks
5. Oh I Wandered
6. Proteus
B. A Lost Interview (exclusively on cassette)
More info on ordering coming soon. Just picked up the cassettes today — the result really sounds and looks like us.
Yay, excited to get more music from Paperfangs. Although I don’t really get the thing with releasing things on cassette. I guess I’m not cool enough.
In Finland, you usually get to choose whether you’d like your semla with almond paste or jam. I’ve always been a jam girl but this year I decided to fill my semlor with raspberry jam AND homemade almond paste. So good!
P.s. reblogging the picture from a new blog where me and my friend Sini post pictures of food that we’ve cooked using our favorite Finnish food blogger’s recipes (we’re both kind of obsessed with her).

Burning Hearts: “Modern Times” Video
A fan-made video for one of my favorite songs off of Extinctions!
Here is a brand new video from Burning Hearts for this gentle tuesday! I couldn’t be more pleased with their amazing new record and I’m doubly excited that they’ve now made a video for my favorite song off of it! Fall in love.
Again, if you haven’t yet, grab ‘Extinctions’ from Shelflife!
Blah, just went to a party that wasn’t today. It’s March 17.
Maybe drinking the remaining glögg (more commonly served around Christmas) and baking some Runeberg’s tortes (traditionally eaten in Finland on February 5) would cheer me up?
