Humppa is a kind of Finnish polka that begins with a short, snappy drum intro and is perfect for polonaises and slider dances. Eläkeläiset claim that all rock, pop and other classics only sound really good as humppa versions.
Four crazy Finns, rarely sober, take well-known chart hits from rock, pop and metal and not only cover them, but "improve" them in polka style. The highlight: they sing exclusively in Finnish! The lyrics are only remotely related to the originals - they fill the gaps in the translation with Finnish swear words or simply "humppa". They maltreat the bass, accordion, drums and keyboard at breathtaking speed. Unusual instruments such as chainsaws, ninja stars, shotguns and batons are also used on stage.
Now in their 33rd year, Eläkeläiset are bringing their unique blend of humppa and chaos back to the stages of Germany with "Humppaaxident II".
