Rasputin (This song was just a Single.) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLo02AquUCs)

how long they've been playing:
Turisas has been playing since 1998 however theses were just demos and not albums. They are still playing today, in fact they are making another Album this year.

Is their music difficult or easy to find?
Good question, their music is really easy to find.

So, has anyone heard of them before? If not then check out some of their songs and tell us "what do you think of them?". I heard about Turisas from one of my sisters who saw them live when going to see Dragonforce.

I saw a music video from them a number of years ago that i thought was hilarious. It had blow up sharks eating people and the guys were running on the beach giving high fives. it was a good time
