Spinefarm Records has set a March 28 Finnish release date for the fifth album from FINNTROLL, entitled “Ur Jordens Djup” (“From the Depths of the Earth”). The CD, which was recorded by Nino Laurenne at Sonic Pump studios in Helsinki, will be the group's first release with new vocalist Mathias Lillmĺns (a.k.a.

Lillmĺns is reportedly 24 years old, and like FINNTROLL's original vocalist, Katla Mathias, is Fenno-Swedish, with Swedish as his mother tongue.
