I am not an expert in this kind of music, but I like a lot:

Kalevala and, especially, their fantastic "People no names" with strong folk-influence.

Tasavallan Presidentti - I prefer their first period with Frank Robson on vocal, later - with Tolonen as lead composer - is ususal jazz-rock

Charlies - their only album is a good example of heavy progressive rock

What other band from this country should be heard?
