					I found this cool pic of one of my favourite bands, Finntroll.  They are a Finnish folk metal band with polka influences.  Looks like they are wearing leather kilts.

					Oh yeah! You are right. They perform in kilts sometimes. How I haven't ever remembered to mention that!?  By the way, they are actually singing in swedish. But that's our second official languege.

					Finntroll is great!  If you like them, I'm glad to make more fans!
 You can find their music from CMDistro/ Century Media in the US and Canada, and Nuclear Blast in Europe.
 
 
 
	No, he's not kilted.  His usual trademark is an ankle-length fur coat/vest, harkening back to Old Norse dress.
