Tero Tolkki from Metal From Finland was interviewed by Brendan Biryla for HollywoodMetal-radio. During his one hour show Tero talked about Metal From Finland website, metalscene in general in Finland and of course Brendan played some of Tero's favourite tunes.

You can listen to the interview at this location (choose the first file in the player, it says Tero Tolkki) or through this page (Episode 84).
We apologize the poor audio quality on some parts...it's a long way from Finland to Hollywood!

Our beloved capital Hellsinki was established on 1550 and we thought it would be kinda cool to make a design of it...very simple...but less is more! We have also added tons of new stuff to MFF-SHOP. Just browse the categories and you'll notice the new stuff there. Below are some pictures from our new design.

TIMO TOLKKI: Interview for Hard Blast

Shared via AddThis

"Maila: Revolution Renaissance has released a CD this year and since then we´ve been expecting for a tour. Why hasn´t it happened yet? Timo: This is a good question. Actually our agents have tried to do it but somehow it´s been very difficult. They tried to book a tour for us even in South America but it didn´t happen actually. But...

In a Myspace far far away we had this flash thingy that you were able to add in your profile. Well it was very cool indeed except the fact that the newslinks didn't work cause Myspace had disabled some flash functionalities. Bummer eh? Well even with setbacks like that, many of you had the news-flash on your profiles anyway! Thank you very much for that. But now things have been taken further and we have a full flesh and blood Myspace application called "Metal From Finland Mini" which you are able to add in your profile very easily. And on this application the links work :)

When you add Metal From Finland Mini to your Myspace profile, it will contain 2 things. Profile-version and the so-called Canvas-version which is the actual Metal From Finland Mini.

Profile version

Profile version simply displays the latest 7 news from Metal From Finland in your profile. View the images below. If you are using the latest Myspace 2.0, you are even able to decide whether the application displays on your left or right side. How they will roughly look on your profile, you can see below.

Profile left:
Profile right:
You can see it working in Metal From Finland Myspace page  www.myspace.com/metalfromfinland
or on this page (Myspace 2.0 version) www.myspace.com/terotolkki

Canvas version
Is the actual Metal From Finland Mini application. There you can browse different sections.



How to add the application to your Myspace page?

Well you can simply go to http://www.myspace.com/490935320 address and there click the "Add the App"-link. It might also be in other languages depending on your language settings. But the button is always in the same place, see image below. Just click the link and follow instructions. Few clicks and you are done! Thank you alredy in advance for spreading the joy of Finnish Metal which after all is probably the best metal in the world!

As early posted, MFF-SHOP was renewed some days ago and already we've noticed that the changes were for better. But with the change we didn't have anything new to sell...until now.
Today we released our new design "DRUNK MOOSE" and we have lots of different items for that design. Not all of them are presented on this page so you can go to www.mff-shop.com and browse the categories to see what kind of products we have for "DRUNK MOOSE"-design.
Some other cool ideas are currently under development and hopefully we'll get them soon to our shop.

There simply isn't enough talk in the world so we decided to open our forum which is of course mainly dedicated to Finnish Metal. But we also have categories for things outside this little country.

We will also be posting MFF news to the forum where people can discuss about those news. This of course doesn't mean that you couldn't comment the news here anymore! But if you want to have a discussion about the newsitem, it's easier to do it in the forum.
