In the interview, Esa talks about the new "Skyforger" album, among other things.
And interestingly, anticipating the future, he comments:

"...I think we’re going to keep on with the themes of Kalevala. In which form or with which story – I don’t know. But Kalevala is so strong inside us that it is always going to be involved with us in some way..."
