In the realm of frost and bitter cold, Where winter's wrath begins to unfold, There dwell the brave, the valiant few, Winter storm vigilantes, mighty and true Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow, With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts, They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart Their winged beasts soar through the frigid air, Majestic and swift, with fiery manes they wear, With snowflakes as their armor glints, On horses of steel they ride to victory In the moonlit snow, they take their stand, Protectors of this frozen land, Their hearts are cold but they carry the flame, Winter storm vigilantes, is their name In the depths of winter's biting embrace, They chase injustice, a relentless race, Through frozen valleys and mountain peaks, Winter storm vigilantes, justice they seek Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow, With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts, They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart Oh, can you see them fly High across the skies Their swords shine in the moonlight The enchanted flame in the night, Guiding them forward, their purpose in sight, On steeds of steel, they ride with pride, Winter storm vigilantes, the heroes who won't ever hide As winter yields to the coming spring, The vigilantes' legacy, a tale to sing, Their steel horses rest until the next call, Winter storm vigilantes, the protectors of all Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow, With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts, They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart Winter storm vigilantes!
They did it again. It gives goosebumps how they combine 3 vocal styles: Petri with the raspy growls, Pekka with high-pitched power metal vocals and Sami with the glorious viking-choir-like melodies. Such a unique sound and I am happy their sound developed this way from where they started. I'm lucky I have seen them 2x in Budapest and Manchester!
It was a great honor for us that our "serious" faces appear in the music video of a band such as Ensiferum, of which we are huge fans - for some of us, such a performance is "metal dreams come true" :D All hail Ensiferum!
These were just tears of happiness, a new "From Afar" after so many years, given the times in which we live. Guys, low bow to you, thanks for the music!
Что бы ни писали любители, "ребята" уже стары как смерть, и всё это остоебло давно и навсегда. Но песенка ничего, на разок под уборку дома с пылесосом подойдёт пожужжать 😊
Hell yeah! Wintersun, Ensiferum, Wolfheart, Nightwish, Winterfylleth, and Atavistia are all dropping new albums this summer/autumn! Plus, Whispered are working on new music as well, but no confirmation on a new release yet, but you know it's coming!
Deep in a 80+ hour week, weak and overwhelmed, dirty and dusty, covered in bruises from weeks of struggle, right before I can go no further, take not one more step: Play Ensiferum. Feel energy rising in my chest, push forward, push harder. Keep rowing.
Excellent song! I'm glad they stuck with the sound established on Thalassic. That was a great return to form after the stagnation era (Unsung Heroes to Two Paths). Can't wait to hear more from this album!!!
This sounds kinda like the old Ensiferum. I apsolutely love the "trumpet" synth at the beginning, it always suited their style, and the vocals are quite cool. I hope they continue in this direction.
Riffs, melodies, and all with a hearty helping of cheese! All I could ever want from an Ensiferum track. Gods I love this band and everything that they do.
I'm a fan since 2001 and I'm happy that EnsiferuM still kicks ass and this new song is one of their best I immediately could tell ❤ this is the best EnsiferuM ever 🎉
Ensiferum are the gods of folk metal. The song "Winter Storm Vigilantes" proves it once again. The song has taken my heart by storm. I love it! Congratulations and thank you so mutch!❤🤘
Astrid, 🖖👽🌷 You, Terraqueans inhabitants, in the Milky Way Galaxy, surely have a wonderful culture and I appreciate the Vikings! 🤘💪🎧🎵🎶 Up The Ensiferums! ✨🛡⚔🛡✨
you guys managed it again. creating a new unique but familiar ENSIFERUM sound. your way could not be more troublesome, u came a long way but still stay strong and tall. i truely love all your music eras but this latest version of Ensiferum feels very well rounded and strong. thank you very much
Very adaptable and impress. This is old Ensiferum and new. The Blend is good , still 50/50 on these power vocals but the hard , power and folk tones from Sami are really something to respect
A few days ago i was taking a look into the discography and thought: "It's already quite long ago they released their last album..." and now a new song pops up. YEAH!!!
absolutely fantastic album, Viking choirs, anthemic chants, I sat on my ass, you guys did a great job on the album, for me the album of the year!!!! thank you!!! Rosta from the Czech Republic
With all the epicness of theit latest albums, I also hear some throwbacks to such iconic tracks as Deathbringer From The Skies and Windrider. Clean vocals fit their style so damn well
What the blazes did I just hear? That is so damn good, so good, can't wait for more. I have not felt this blown away since the latest album from Induction was released late last year. Can't wait for the new album from Ensiferum.
This is the best Ensiferum stuff since Victory Songs. And I might even say their best work in the Petri Era. Happy to see them in Oberhausen in Janurary.
the villain that survives and looks up to the vigilantes staring back at him with their swords in hand is so f*cking badass. ensiferum delivers again. kaunis laulu ! hyva suomi !
So cool that I could feel the temperature drop! Nice job! BTW, if you'd consider making a wall scroll or a poster out of the opening artwork, I think people would be interested in it.
Greeting to Thou, Liebe Wanderers from Afar Ancient Lands of the Gods of Afar North. Hail to thee since Thine Last Visit to Monterrey, Mexico at September 17th. I was There with my Mother ar the Front of Stage at Nandas Bar! I Will Await, as Unser Ways Meet Once Again, by the Power of Grimner, and the Njorns, Maidens of the Strings of Fate. For uns Winds and Waves meeting crossing Once Again. Ensiferum in the Valhalla Forever!!!
![Insomnium - Winter's Gate [FULL ALBUM]](/img/n.gif)
In the realm of frost and bitter cold,
Where winter's wrath begins to unfold,
There dwell the brave, the valiant few,
Winter storm vigilantes, mighty and true
Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow,
With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts,
They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart
Their winged beasts soar through the frigid air,
Majestic and swift, with fiery manes they wear,
With snowflakes as their armor glints,
On horses of steel they ride to victory
In the moonlit snow, they take their stand,
Protectors of this frozen land,
Their hearts are cold but they carry the flame,
Winter storm vigilantes, is their name
In the depths of winter's biting embrace,
They chase injustice, a relentless race,
Through frozen valleys and mountain peaks,
Winter storm vigilantes, justice they seek
Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow,
With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts,
They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart
Oh, can you see them fly
High across the skies
Their swords shine in the moonlight
The enchanted flame in the night,
Guiding them forward, their purpose in sight,
On steeds of steel, they ride with pride,
Winter storm vigilantes, the heroes who won't ever hide
As winter yields to the coming spring,
The vigilantes' legacy, a tale to sing,
Their steel horses rest until the next call,
Winter storm vigilantes, the protectors of all
Through the blizzards, through the storms, they won't let evil grow,
With frost in their veins and fire in their hearts,
They fight the darkness, tearing evil apart
Winter storm vigilantes!
Meral Blade is an excellent music company.🤘🤘
such epic and badass lyrics!
Hello from Brussels in Belgium... ✌👑
They did it again. It gives goosebumps how they combine 3 vocal styles: Petri with the raspy growls, Pekka with high-pitched power metal vocals and Sami with the glorious viking-choir-like melodies. Such a unique sound and I am happy their sound developed this way from where they started. I'm lucky I have seen them 2x in Budapest and Manchester!
The best satirical posting on this day.
Pekka definitely binged them to next level 🔥 🤘 😎
Yes, it's the Amaranthe of Viking Metal. 😅
@@PeterOsterbart-fq3qn love the analogy! 😂
Come on! Give Markus some credit too!
I'm a teen again, I'm discovering folk metal for the first time again,
Ensiferum, what is this magic!?
Maybe you had one more magic potion?
One to growl, one to howl, and a third to bring them together.
And a third *and a fourth*
From Afar vibes!!! ✨
It's like 'From afar' and 'Thalassic' had a son! 😁
I thought it was just me hearing FA in it. And I'm so glad because that's my favourite album and I love the epicness and orchestra sound 😁🤩🤘
I agree !!! 🤩
Absolutely 👍
I was thinking the exact same thing. And I love it!
Thalassic was near From Afar level but still not that good enough.
It was a great honor for us that our "serious" faces appear in the music video of a band such as Ensiferum, of which we are huge fans - for some of us, such a performance is "metal dreams come true" :D All hail Ensiferum!
Here we go, Wintersun, Nightwish, Ensiferum - the best year.
Yes, man!
So: Korpiklaani, Verikalpa, Sonata Arctica, Apocalyptica! Finnish are best!!
Crownshift, Oranssi Pazuzu
Catamenia, Moonsorrow, Satanic North, Norther, Children of Bodom, Warren...
Insomnium, Turmion Kätilöt, Huora, Mokoma, Stam1na
Whispered, Ruoska..
This sounds phenomenal. Glad Ensiferum still sound as awesome as they did when I first heard them!
Dude watch Wacken 2008 THATS Ensiferum
These were just tears of happiness, a new "From Afar" after so many years, given the times in which we live. Guys, low bow to you, thanks for the music!
Dude, I'm crying! Ensiferum is so back!!
Me too!
That clean vocals singer adds exactly what was missing in this band
This songs a banger. One of the best songs of the year so far and it's been a super good year for metal. This is top notch stuff 👌
Thalassic was one of my favourite albums ever, I can't wait for more!!! This sounds amazing already, yeah!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
All hail the mighty Swordbearers from Finland!
The vocalist at 2:15 absolutely CRUSHES those high notes. Wow! He blows me away.
fucking glorious vocals
Cant stop playing this song i love ensiferum ❤
Ну что же, парни продолжают ковать лучший метал! Легко узнаваемый стиль! Моя любимая группа!
Its amazing! I remembered the sound of Victory Songs but with a more current feel. Amazing Ensiferum! Hugs from Brazil!
It misses the old Death Metal vibes of Victory Songs tho 😢
Ahti !
新作来ましたね
今作も魂を揺さぶる感じの楽曲が多そうで今から楽しみです！
音楽に国境なんて関係ない！！
Love ensiferum. One of my favorite bands! Especially first two albums, victory songs and the last album.
Чтобы не писали критики, а ребята круты и лично я всегда жду их новых битв и чертовски зажигательных композиций 😊💣🔥
Что бы ни писали любители, "ребята" уже стары как смерть, и всё это остоебло давно и навсегда.
Но песенка ничего, на разок под уборку дома с пылесосом подойдёт пожужжать 😊
Не заходит вообще. Лучше бы Norther воскресили...
@@ardjune7037 Ну рашистам конечно без (шамана)никак,сиди в мухосранске.
Great stuff, hopin for that classic Ensiferum sound 🤘
Absolutely beautiful. That intro is Ensiferum to the core . The acoustic and then the drums slam in!!
Hell yeah!
Wintersun, Ensiferum, Wolfheart, Nightwish, Winterfylleth, and Atavistia are all dropping new albums this summer/autumn!
Plus, Whispered are working on new music as well, but no confirmation on a new release yet, but you know it's coming!
I'm not an Ensiferum fan, but this song really caught my attention...
Well, time to check the other stuff from them and bekome one with the wind (fan)
Thallasic was one of the best albums I"ve ever heard. If this one can rech similar heights, we're in for a massive blast.
Deep in a 80+ hour week, weak and overwhelmed, dirty and dusty, covered in bruises from weeks of struggle, right before I can go no further, take not one more step:
Play Ensiferum. Feel energy rising in my chest, push forward, push harder.
Keep rowing.
Excellent song! I'm glad they stuck with the sound established on Thalassic. That was a great return to form after the stagnation era (Unsung Heroes to Two Paths). Can't wait to hear more from this album!!!
Ensiferum never disappoint us, they always make the best music
This sounds kinda like the old Ensiferum. I apsolutely love the "trumpet" synth at the beginning, it always suited their style, and the vocals are quite cool. I hope they continue in this direction.
Сколько лет, сколько зим, родные
Riffs, melodies, and all with a hearty helping of cheese! All I could ever want from an Ensiferum track. Gods I love this band and everything that they do.
Epic. The new standard from Ensiferum. Getting Iron album vibes as well
Absolutely epic! Raise your swords up high \m/ Can`t wait to hear the new songs live.
Great to see you guys here! Hoping for a new album from you!!
@@michaelvdbgd Thank you! We cannot wait to work on a new album. ;)
Amazing! Ensiferum still Return! Greetings from Hungary!😃
Absolutely epic! Just what I needed. Awesome song guys!
Awesome song! Can't wait for the new album to come out in October! :D
The cleans added such a fantastic dimension to the last album. I'm glad they are back!
I'm a fan since 2001 and I'm happy that EnsiferuM still kicks ass and this new song is one of their best I immediately could tell ❤ this is the best EnsiferuM ever 🎉
