A previous message from the band reads:

"Sonic Pump Studios is under attack!

Monday, July 27th, 2009 will be remembered as the "Day of Wrath", when the sky rained fire and molten plague. And also because Finntroll will enter Sonic Pump Studios to start the recordings of our... hmm, fifth...? I guess so. :D , yet-untitled album.

We will try to keep you guys informed about the nasty stuff we do there via diary or even a video diary (gasp!!) to see how badly it goes.

And for the record, all confirmed gigs will be played, so no need to worry about that."

As previously reported, Finntroll filmed and recorded a recent show at the world-famous Melkweg in Amsterdam, and it is this footage that provides the basis for the as-yet-untitled DVD, which will be released in September via Spinefarm Records UK.
