Review by Natashia Kitamura

Vuoden Synkin Juhla is the latest album by Viikate, a Finnish heavy metal band. The album features ten tracks that showcase the band's unique blend of metal and rock music.

The album opens with the title track, which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The song features heavy riffs and powerful vocals, creating a dark and moody atmosphere. The album continues with tracks like "Kuolleen Miehen Kupletti" and "Kuoleman Kutsu," which maintain the same level of intensity.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Käärmeenpolttaja." The song starts off slow and atmospheric, building up to a powerful chorus that will have fans headbanging along. Another highlight is "Laulu Kuolemasta," which features haunting vocals and a beautiful guitar solo.
