Finnish metal group TERÄSBETONI, which will represent Finland in this year's Eurovision Song Contest (having won the Finnish final on March 1), has topped the album chart in its home country with the band's third effort, "Myrskyntuoja". The CD was produced by Hiili Hiilesmaa (HIM, APOCALYPTICA, THE 69 EYES), who previously worked with TERÄSBETONI on the group's last LP, the gold-certified (in Finland) "Vaadimme metallia", which came out in 2006.

TERÄSBETONI recently released the video for the Finnish national Eurovision Song Contest selection, "Missä Miehet Ratsastaa". The clip, which was filmed during the weekend of February 23-24 in Porvoo and Helsinki, can be viewed below.

"Missä Miehet Ratsastaa" entered the Finnish single chart at position No. 2.
