Finnish is a crazy language and the CD was totally unclear as to which was the band/artist name, which was the album name, etc. i took a guess and it's a miracle I was as close as I was. Just how many a's, k's and u's in a row are allowed in Finnish?

Pardon? You mean names/words such as "Pekkkkka"? I haven't seen anything like that. It's usually two similar letters in a row at max.

Damo, *some* Finnish and Japanese words actually resemble each other and are probably pronounced in a somewhat similar manner. But that's obviously coincidental, not because of any common heritage.
