Turisas

| The band Turisas was founded in 1997 in Finland by Mathias
Nygård and Jussi Wickström and named after an ancient Finnish war god.
A detailed classification of the style of their music is difficult, as
the band mixes many varieties of metal. Turisas mixed mainly epic Viking
metal with Finnish folk (and Humppa). The band describes their music as
"Battle Metal ".
During their performances, the band members use a black and red
"war paint", which is a hallmark of the band. According to
Nygård, they use black acrylic paint and fake blood.
