Yesterday also brought us a great Finnish album. Sound of Finland released the new Suomen Zorro album Muistan sinut Maria. This is a big deal for me, because I hold Suomen Zorro and their songwriter Petri Vähäsarja in very high regard. Muistan sinut Maria is a success and further proof of their talent. I was a little bit worried that the label might try to turn them into something far more common, far more radio friendly and far more boring. Thankfully this doesn’t seem to be the case (at least not to an extent that it would be any kind of an issue) and the world of Suomen Zorro is still a little bit weird and blissfully twisted albeit often delivered in beautiful harmony. Even though the album title gave it away, I was pleased to find out that the album also contains a big old favourite song Kuusi syliä. Still love that song and it’s good to have that song officially available.
