One does not simply stop KORPIKLAANI: The Folk Metal Superstars recently announced a European tour with ARKONA, HEIDEVOLK and TROLLFEST for early 2018, this trek will once again bring the band's ravenous energy to European fans. For the first time ever, the Finns have captured and immortalised this aforementioned live power - on their first ever live Blu-ray/DVD+2CD package titled »Live at Masters of Rock«

When Jonne Järvelä first formed KORPIKLAANI, he always had a vision of perfectly combining the two music worlds he loved the most; heavy metal and folk music. His vision has finally been achieved and the results can be viewed on KORPIKLAANI’s first ever DVD/Blu-ray release. »Live at Masters of Rock« illustrates why the band have achieved fame and success around the world, becoming the Folk Metal Superstars that they are today.

Limited 14 disc (13 CDs + NTSC/Region 0 DVD) Includes all nine studio albums from 1991 to 2009 with eight bonus tracks and two bonus CDs - "Classics Re-Recorded" originally issued with the initial pressings of Killing Ground, and Lionheart - Rough Studio Mix originally issued on the 2006 limited edition…

"Live At Masters Of Rock" shows once again that ELUVEITIE understand how to seamlessly meld unique elements together that may not usually fit. Especially on stage, the various parts morph together powerfully, in an almost spiritual way. The listener is spoiled with a uniquely clear and punchy sound to a unified undertow. The stormy, even primeval power of Melodic Death meets the wonderful, spiritual soul of Folk Metal. The result is thus - original hits that are based on musical class and choruses that are so beautiful and memorable that they take you right back to the distant past of pre-industrial times. "Live At Masters Of Rock" shows the quintessence of a band whose songs are written for the stage and will last.
