Korpiklaani (Finnish for ) is a Finnish folk metal band from Lahti that was formerly known as Shamaani Duo and Shaman.
==History== ===Shamaani Duo=== Korpiklaani started with folk music before turning metal. The roots of Korpiklaani can be traced back to a Sámi folk music group under the name of "Shamaani Duo", an "in house restaurant band" created by Jonne Järvelä in 1993. An album of folk music (Hunka Lunka) was released under this name before Järvelä relocated and "Shamaani Duo" morphed into "Shaman".
