CHTHONIC's vocalist Freddy Lim appointed as Taiwan's ambassador to Finland – World's first heavy metal ambassador eagerly anticipates new role - Chaoszine

CHTHONIC frontman Freddy Lim is set to begin a groundbreaking diplomatic role as Taiwan's ambassador to Finland. With Finland often regarded as the world's most metal-oriented nation—boasting over 80 metal bands per 100,000 residents—the appointment of a heavy metal vocalist as ambassador to the global capital of metal represents a unique and remarkably fitting decision.

    Chthonic - Defenders of Bu-Tik Palace [Taiwanese Heavy Metal]

    Chthonic is a fantastic band. Everyone should check them out if you’ve never heard them but enjoy metal.

    Does this open the door for Jesse James Dupree to be a US ambassador to England? I think it should.

    With Finland’s love for heavy metal, this seems to be an apt fit. I also saw Chthonic open for Korpiklaani in 2014. Amazing show.
