    Absolutely love this album! It does everything you want from ensiferum. I've been listening to them since like 2005, i think. They're always fun and catchy and make you want to throw on some chainmail and start a circle pit. Like you said, the best live show experience imaginable. Can't wait til we get live music again 😭

    Dylan has become my favourite BangerTV reviewer. He speaks eloquently, has strong knowledge of the industry, and seems like he can be a fair, unbiased critic. My one beef with this review, not Dylan's fault, is the plug for the new Voivod EP at the end. It just reeks of label promotion (like CM paid you guys to say it). There's nothing really new about the EP to look forward to. I could see if it was completely new songs.

  • @jasonvegan5761
    @jasonvegan5761 Před 4 lety +6

    Yep it’s a banger, just listened to the whole album last night. There’s a lot of stuff on there, some gothic metal like Amorphis, power metal like Sabaton, a little Finntroll, and some Enslaved for good measure 🤘

    That was one of my first metal shows as well. I'd say they were the golden days of folk metal, if there ever was such a thing. Paganfest was still a thing, Eluveitie were hitting their stride, Amon Amarth were still playing to tiny rooms, etc etc.
    Only bummer about this tour was the fact Hypocrisy cancelled . :(

    Very different album for them. Enjoyed it, but just did a tier list on the channel today and this one ranks lower for me in the big scheme of things. But then I’ve never been big on the power metal elements that come front and center on this release.
