The title of Finnish band Korpiklaani​'s eleventh album has no direct English translation. Jylhä describes a scene of natural majesty, but alludes also to the emotions evoked. While every word of this band's lyrics is sung in their native tongue, the music at least translates more easily. Like every previous Korpiklaani release, this is reeling, hard spun folk metal, a familiar format done here with an authentic native zeal.

It's full of rugged hooks, accordion-led stomp and satisfyingly heavy riffs. With words written by poet and author Tuomas Keskimäki (not a band member) this is music that speaks of the arcane and the atavistic. First track Verikoira - and, indeed, the equally epic closer Juuret - offer multiple set pieces, each segment indicative of what can be enjoyed on the album elsewhere. When engaging in heads-down metal, Verikoira salutes Judas Priest​'s classic Painkiller, something the band has raised its hand and acknowledged. Similarly, though less officially, Nightwish fans will find elements of 2007's Amaranth weaving in and out of Korpiklaani's tuneful, folk-led Sanaton Maa.
