Noita is the ninth studio album by Finnish folk metal band Korpiklaani.[2] The title is the Finnish word for "witch", but is closer in meaning to "shaman," "witch-doctor," or "medicine man."[3][4]

The track "Jouni Jouni" is a cover version of the song "Mony Mony" by Tommy James and the Shondells.[5]
