It's been a while. In 2006 was the first time I'd finally see one of my favourite metal bands live. The bouncer that the door in Dublin, Ireland asked if I was even into this type of music because I was wearing a blue buttoned up shirt (coming from work), but another one pointed out that I was also wearing an Ensiferum t-shirt on top of it. So I got in. One of the most memorable experiences of my life. I used to listen to Enska ALL THE TIME. Not sure what happened during the past decade but I didn't listen to it anymore. Now I'm back, I have tears in my eyes how good this is.
Nice, remind me the sound of the end of the nineties/early two thousand...i been very specific as was a very particular moment for metal. Good blend of aggression and epicity
Just a few minutes ago my colleague showed me one track of Ensiferum... I liked it, randomly jumped here, heard the Intro and I was hooked and blown away.
number 1 reason why i fell in love with ensiferum is their folk melodic metal. absolutely genius and might i say i haven't found any other band that does it like them. Theres wintersun and korpiklaani, but none of them manages to balance metal and folk so perfectly. Songs like heathen throne, vainamoinen part 3, longest journey are absolute killers.
It took me a while to finally listen to this album. It's amazing. I think it's their best work since Victory Songs, and the best-produced and mixed ever. The flexibility allowed by Pekka adds a lot, and some songs like Run from the Crushing Tide or One with the Sea reach this pathos that is utter epicness. Also, finally a metal band after the 2010s who realised you don't have to wreck everybody's balls with 1h+ album. Good old intense 40-50 minutes with no fillers are perfection.
@@jamescourt4703 You're welcome mate! I'm halfway through the album just now (yeah, when I commented I only launched the video to save it and I saw your comment), and I like this new clean singer. It brings back some aspects that makes me love their first two albums way more than the rest of their works. Their previous guitarist/singer was amazing and I still love his work. Now he's in his passion project, Wintersun. And if you like Ensiferum, and you like their early work, you might like Wintersun too.
@@wibbles7263 pimples yea! When you hear good rock it gets the heart beating and the hairs on your arms stand on end!! I roadie,d for many years in the early 80s and boy, did I get good vibes!! Rock till u drop man, it will never die!!
I think one of the things I love most about Ensiferum is how much it sounds like they're just having so much fun in every album. They really enjoy what they're doing, and it shows!
I don't get people who complain about clean vocals. Ensiferum has pretty much always mixed clean vocals with screaming. It's what makes them so great imo.
yes but theres 2 reasons: 1º some people like me, prefer Markus as clean vocals. 2º Probably this album have the most % of clean vocals in the history of Ensiferum.
I'm on the fence about this. Generally speaking I don't like cleans in my metal. That being said there are plenty of metal acts that use cleans that I do genuinely enjoy. However if I'm listening to a band specifically for the dirties, I'll be rightly pissed if they use cleans. Basically I want my Manowar to be Manowar and my Carach Angren to be Carach Angren. I don't like it when bands switch up for more attention. I understand money but damn, it just feels like they're selling out at that point(cuz they are)
I never gave a chance to this guys because I usually don't like metal with harsh vocals. This album is the proof that maybe I like harshed music. Amazing album. Thank you Ensiferum.
same , startt liking them because of the instrumental and the chorus in victory song , and then start apreciating the vocal , wich usially i prefer high pitched and cleaner
I've seen this. Classic British Heavy Metal, Power Metal, most Folk Metal, Symphonic Metal, Doom Metal, and Progressive Metal use pretty clean vocals for the most part. The Middle range vocal style (raspy yelling, or harsh ish) is probably Groove, Thrash, Metalcore, etc. And then you have extreme metal (death metal, black metal, etc). But usually if you like one metal genre you end up liking all of them with time. A way to get into harsh vocals are to listen to bands that use harsh and clean vocals or just middle-range raspy thrash vocals.
@@mr.echo24 that's 100% right. I started with Power Metal and Traditional Metal and now I'm also listening to Death Metal. Ensiferum and Epica (mostly) helped me get into growled music 😁
@@mr.echo24 really really good advice. I remember my first introduction to death metal was by cannibal corpses from a buddy of mine and I couldn't stop laughing at the vocals, thinking it was a part of the joke. He didn't think it was too funny
Being my favorite albums from Ensiferum the self-titled album, Iron and Victory Songs, this album really stands up with its sound and configuration, i really like the clean vocals, the guitar melodies, its been a long time since i didn't felt so interested in an Ensiferum album, i love it!
I listen Ensiferum long time and in my opinion is the best album since From Affar. Run from the Crushing Tide remids me good oldschool Ensiferum, but whole album is really good.
@@HeroSword_P Yeah! I think it's the new clean vocalist who brings that. At least that's how I feel about it. It brings back some of what Jari did with the band on their first two albums (which are just amazing pieces of music). Cheers from France! 🍻
@@DarthWinterMadness finally ran out of Jari unfinished work so now they have to try out new things....now its blind guardian with more yelling with a Norse mythology backing. Oh the glory days of Victory Songs and From Afar!
Such a brilliant record for anyone loving melodic death or folk metal. The atmosphere, instrumental work, perfect vocals.. Will keep me away from the summer heat \m/ Thank you Ensiferum
The whole thing is a freakin masterpiece. But. when 4:59 hits and the vocals come in, hnng it's so perfect. You guys are my biggest inspiration and after playing so many genres of music, I finally have committed my first album to be EPIC Viking Metal!!
Also, ensiferum always has the most badass album covers. If you showed me this picture without text before this came out, I would have guessed it was ensiferum.
The new keyboard-clear vocalist is a nice touch, and the album sounds inspired. It seems at same high level of victory songs and from afar. Well done guys!
@August Canaille i think is a matter of taste. But, if you know ensiferum from the beggining, they was always, 80% "serious and epic" and 20% most, happy and crazy. At the last albums I think (at least a my oppinion) that they lost their touch. This new album sound like the stonger past.
Oh thank gods, I'm not going crazy it really is someone new- It threw me off so hard at first like, 'who the fuck is this???? I don't remember this voice being in the line up??' They're good though XD
Bought it just after the first listen ! So great ! Thank you guys to make us feel these powerful emotions ! Clean vocalist is really mastering its thing.
@@TheStenius Have you listened to their first two albums? They're full of "Power Metal Vocals", and to me that's part of what makes these albums better than the rest of their catalogue. Cheers from France! 🍻
Acabo de ser tomado por sorpresa por este álbum y en específico por esta banda. No soy fan del folk metal ni cosas por el estilo, pero esta mezcla de Folk, Thrash, algunos toques Black y esa sensación de "epicness" a lo largo de las piezas simplemente me encantó! Seguiré escuchando sus demás álbumes! Gran banda!
Wieder einmal ein sehr gelungenes Album. Und der Sound von Ensiferum ist auch hier wieder voll zum Ausdruck gebracht worden. Bitte noch ganz viel Musik produzieren. Ihr seit wie immer der Hammer 🥳🥳
Yeah, that's awesome. Although I have to ask: where have you been the last 5 to 10 years? Record labels and bands have uploaded new releases in full for years now.
First impressions: Well crafted album. Some moments / melodies are really good, like the chorus of The Defence of the Sampo, the main riff of Andromeda, The ending of One with the sea, etc. But the absolute winner to me right now is Cold Northland. What an epic journey.
Nach langen Jahren habe ich mal wieder geschaut was meine damalige Lieblingsband so neues hat und war Erfreut und überrascht das ich ganze 3 Alben verpasst hatte. Thalassic ist von diesen 3 Alben das mit Abstand beste :-) Es erinnerte mich stark an die Anfangszeiten der Band. Von Anfang bis Ende ein absolut gelungenes Album! :)
That's kind of what I'm getting with this new singer. It's like they want to get back some of the vibes Jari brought on back in the day. Their first two albums are my favorites, and it's definitely because of Jari. This guy is awesome and an amazing musician. He made Ensiferum at the time. Cheers from France! 🍻
Each ensiferum album sounds different, but all of them sounds so good, and I think that´s the magic from this band, they sound fresh but without loosing their roots, amazing job!
I totally agree, I don't like their last two albums as much as their first ones, but they all feel very different and new and they all have their own theme, that's part of why Ensiferum is my favorite band !
Different^^? Really...I dunno know, they ll kinda sound the same to me. This one's kinda different because of the clean melody, but the song structures, the beats and also the guitar sounds are pretty much the same^^
@@gabe_o_verse in fact, there are many elements that makes each album sounds different, por example if you listen two paths, there are many power metal elements, if you hear the choruses from some songs or some guitar riffs, now in this album you will find the high clean voice from the new member, and from afar doesn´t has those elements so marked,songs like twilight tavern or stone cold metal their folk metal roots are notorius
For me this album is quite special , I played a D&D campaign defending the Sampo by following the ancient leads of the Vainamoinen !I will sing full of pride the referred songs, cause I WAS THERE YEEEEEAH
people change, thus their music changes. in the case of In Flames, they lost a lot of fans, and gained many others. everything changes. i was absolutely devastated when i heard Soundtrack for the first time, but it is what it is. there is so much good music out there anyway
This is an Album, a class, just an upper class, I have not heard such an album for a very long time! Thanks, just thanks for your creation! I greet you from Moscow!
I've never been desapointed by any album of this band which is my favorite of all time. Especially their intros, this one reminds me the song call '' the rite '' from a band called Northland. A masterpiece thanks guys for this one!
I think it's the first decent/good album since From Afar. There have been a few good songs but the latest albums haven't been that good. It's a bit of a return to form, and I like that there's less harsh vocals (I'm growing tired of them).
Nice.... perfect for this time of year. Just got home from working out by lake Ontario. Thank you for sharing this one. Just listened to this and cleaned my living room 😁😂😀
This album is a work of art! Every song is wonderful. Pekka really brought more power and a wider range of sounds and possibilities to the band. Amazing work guys! Enjoying the album every day, and the lovely release gig as well! Had a blast with it.
@Samael Well until now I am the happiest man in the world - because if it is so as you say, then they hit me right in the 10 mark. My world will turn into darkness if there is no more the Ensiferum I know. Yes, I also like @jordan s hope the day will never come.
10. Merille Lähtevä (Bonus Track) 11. I'll Stay by Your Side (Bonus Track) Are missing! And to be honest they are sueprcool in the album as complex. TY!!!!
Wow...Wow. That sounds so amazing. New way for Ensiferum?! Amazing. How many guest singers? Oh i love it... Great work guys. Thank you for this masterpiece
@@meowth9245 To be honest... "Two Paths" made me Fan of this Band. I was listen to a few songs before, but "Two Paths" was my reason to listen more to this Band and learn to love all of their Songs. And yes, "From Afar" is a Masterpiece
My absolute best moment of 2020 ... 1,5 week stunned, drunken, stoned and speedy gonzales ..... no one ..no one expected this " jewel "of an album from 1 sec. till the last ..!!! \m/

This is perfect, was listening to them from 2005, still kicks ass, Cold Northland best song ever
Cold Northland is the return of old Ensiferum of which we've been awaiting for over 10 years.

Indeed. One of the most epic song i've ever listened in my whole life!
Ive been rocking 50plus years, but never came across this great band. The magical sound of iron and a vibe that gives you pimples!
Then, listen to their album Iron, different lead singer/guitar.
The first two are my fave because of that!

Moving to pirate metal is int folk nordic viking metal which is their roots.

The Defence of the Shampoo...WoW

Sampo, not shampoo....
Eluveitie changed, nightwish changed, arkona changed... Never change Ensiferum !!
@Samael Well until now I am the happiest man in the world - because if it is so as you say, then they hit me right in the 10 mark. My world will turn into darkness if there is no more the Ensiferum I know. Yes, I also like @jordan s hope the day will never come.
@Samael Yes you are right, that's why I said: "they hit me in the 10 mark" .
Midsummer magic is awesome! It seems like nobody noticed.
Why did you find it awesome?

Listening to For Sirens, and sometimes I have a feeling that I hear Timo Kotipelto, maybe it's just me, but that pronounciation in clean vocals...

Wow...Wow. That sounds so amazing. New way for Ensiferum?! Amazing. How many guest singers? Oh i love it... Great work guys. Thank you for this masterpiece
i think their new keyboardist also does clean vocals ;) very talented guy
@@meowth9245 The whole Band is so talented. This Album surprised me. I really love it
@@DeCourcy13815 i agree, i liked this one much better than "two paths". it kinda gives me a "from afar" vibe in some respects. really good stuff
@@meowth9245 To be honest... "Two Paths" made me Fan of this Band. I was listen to a few songs before, but "Two Paths" was my reason to listen more to this Band and learn to love all of their Songs. And yes, "From Afar" is a Masterpiece
I love this music I can't stop thinking about it and dancing
Such a good album. I buy it every day!
Listening to this for the first time playing Elder Scroll Online and loving it
One of my favourites albums from this 2020!!
My absolute best moment of 2020 ... 1,5 week stunned, drunken, stoned and speedy gonzales ..... no one ..no one expected this " jewel "of an album from 1 sec. till the last ..!!! \m/
