Hei soturit (Finnish for "Hey Warriors") is the second studio album by the Finnish rock group Sielun Veljet. The CD release of the album is titled Hei soturit/Lapset, as it also includes the 1983 EP Lapset (Finnish for "The Children").

"Elintaso" was covered by Finnish rock group Aknestik on the 2002 various artists tribute album Säkenöivää voimaa - tribuutti Sielun Veljille. Ismo Alanko said in an interview that he prefers cover versions that try to find a new perspective to the original, and that the Aknestik version was even confusing because they had transformed the furious song into a ballad.^[1] Popeda covered "Aina Nälkä" on the same album.
