Lyrics: Andromeda
Woe to the one
Who boast in front of the Gods
Woe to the God
Who is petty and jealous to mortals
Woe to the beast
Who blindly obeys
Woe to the king
Who, like a fool, sacrifices his own kin
Gods and heroes shall fade away in time
She will live forever
Our queen Andromeda
Why is it hollow fame that men seek?
And love the beast inside of you and me
"You shall not harm the maiden of my dreams
Come and face your demise, monster of the deep!"
Gods and heroes shall fade away in time
She will live forever
Our queen Andromeda
Gods and heroes shall fade away in time
She will live forever
Our queen Andromeda
Pages of time crumble before our eyes
Unlike the awe for immortal skies
"You shall not have the maiden of my dreams
Kneel, flee or I'll cast a curse of stone upon thee!"
Gods and heroes shall fade away in time
She will live forever
Our queen Andromeda
Gods and heroes shall fade away in time
She will live forever
Our queen Andromeda
Ensiferum haven't done Power Metal singing since Iron when Jari was in the band. Really need to get used to his voice but the riffs remind me of the Victory Songs era which is a good thing. Seems to be the best album since From Afar so far.
I agree with everything you just wrote.
I got some heavy Iron-era vibes from this song. The main guitar riff reminded me of "Sword Chant" and then later as you have the singing going and hear the lead guitar just diddling away in the background made me think of "Into Battle"
P.S. I really want to hear how their classic songs will sound like with the Keyboard player on stage, he's got a really good clean voice with a wide range that I feel Ensiferum has lacked since the first 2 albums
If they have bands playing in Valhalla Ensiferum would be one
Amon Amarth
Amazing ! These guys never disappoint ! I'm definitely getting this album. Before the galaxy was named, Andromeda was a heroine in Greek myth. She was chained to a rock overlooking the sea and the sea god Poseidon sent a monster to eat her. She was rescued by the hero Perseus on Pegasus the winged horse. Obviously the video didn't have the budget for all that but I'm happy with boobs. Cheers guys ! (Crystal Viper : When the Sun Goes Down - Por favor.)
"but I'm happy with boobs." xD
Some parts reminds me of the mighty Token of Time. And I love that song. 🤘🤘
I loved Two Paths, so now I'm super stoked for this upcoming album. Ensiferum is def one of my faves
ok this was surprised that keyboard player song those clear part,wow. other keyboard player who sing also is tarot band tuple. very rare indeed. this song sounds good,very earthy i liked. thanx guys.
Thanks for the captions
Can't wait for the rest of the album. If it's gonna be Iron mixed with Victory songs it might be the best album since Jari left
That's what I've been thinking. I mean all of their albums have been great but this one could be the" ONE" to top all of their previous works.
I really love how i got surprised! Enska needed to do that, and they did!!
Pretty surprised... this definitively has an old Ensiferum vibe, which I haven't heard in this band since Jari left. If the rest of the songs are like this, I'm for sure in!!
That was fucking cool! Old Ensiferum vibes. Much more interesting than the first single. AN-DRO-MEDAAA!
I can't say that their sound changed dramatically, but I definitely hear some Kotipelto/Stratovarius vibes, and I actually love it! Feels like a breath of fresh air. "Two Paths" felt like fun, but this one is epic. Can't wait for a full release!
A and P ..father and son ...you both got a new fan and friend ....... ..thank you !! \m/
In many moments this song reminded me of "One more magic potion"
These guys are getting better and better!
I was already psyched for the album. This video made me more psyched. And also psyched for your interview!
This song made me preorder the vinyl
this looks like a reaction/review of the album. Awesome! can't wait to hear it.
Actually I had a band for 10 years where I played bass and sung (Northern Seer) LOL Anyhow, next time your here I’ll show you some epic bass playin’ 🔥😎
Andromeda is a Greek Mythological figure before being a galaxy though. :)
I would think the galaxy existed before any greek figures though. (Edit; Love, Karen.)
There's even a constellation under her name too.
@@gravenwolf6535 Technically the constellation is above her name (love, Sharon)
this is my favourite song from ensiferum, and tumman virran taa, those are my favourite ones
Awesome reaction and big respect to Petri for what he said! 🙌🏻
I loved Two Paths and thought it was the best since Victory Songs, so if this is better, I'll be stoked.
great keyboard singers are always good, alestorm has one also!
You have to react to "Heaven Shall Burn - Combat"
Its an older song from HSB, but... it's tough... The Video, the lyrics and the song.
You have to react to it.
The voice of this keyboard man sounds like Mike Vescera voice 100%
The beginning of this song sounds like Sword Chant 100%.
I guess u should check out babymatel oh majinai....they sound alike this song....bt a great album so far by ensiferun....always loved them
When can we expect a reaction to the new Unleash the Archers - Abyss, guys?🤘😃
Tuesday
Great reaction as always!!!🤘🤟
You guys should do more Rammstein!!!
I recommend Na moey zemle, goi rode goi from Arkona
Yes we have, a couple of songs.
@@APREACTS yes I just look at them jaja, I would recommend those ln my edit coment.
Andromeda is Galaxy...Yeeah... 😂 but the song is about Greek mythology and has nothing to do with galaxies and constellations!
Never let the truth get in the way of a good story
@@APREACTS In the mythology Perseus saves Andromeda from a sea monster. She was chained to a rock like in this video.
React to Medicated - My Descent
Guys please react to new single of Unleash The Archers "Abyss"
Probably Tuesday.
That song it so so so good !
Imminence - paralyzed
Funny you mention Spaceballs. Just yesterday I saw a shirt saying "Spaceballs - The Shirt". I think I will buy it someday. But be careful. Your space knowledge might be flawed since Spaceballs isn't exactly accurate.
Get out of here. Spaceballs is not Fake News. lol
@@APREACTS Of course not. It's just flawed. Of course I believe a tiny green guy called Yogurt more than any astrophysicist! Am I redeemed?
100%. A flying space Winnebago is totally a thing.
I finally remembered what this reminds me of.

The guy in the left side has no rhythmic in the moves!
idk, the song is cool and all but doesn't stand out with anything, it's pretty generic and low effort. The first single was better
I disagree, imo this song is a step towards their roots. Lots of similarities with their early stuff, which is a style they clearly moved away from for a few albums. And with the new clean singer it's like a reminder to the fans, like "Hey, remember when we did stuff like this? We can still deliver!"
The Ensiferum guys seem to officially have run out of ideas. This is the most uninspired, bland run of the mill Ensiferum song ever. You find that same song on every one of the albums. Boring stuff. In the Jari days they made some awesome music. Sad to see them watering down more and more.
I agree. The song is not bad... it's just generic as hell.
The first two albums by Ensiferum will remain their absolute masterpieces.
Though I do have fondess for Victory Songs and From Afar, but after that... yeah...
I mean... the band does something different, you people complain that "they've lost their touch" and "sold out", and when they do something that's similar to their past work you say "they've run out of ideas" and "you find the same song on every album". And yet, every time they release something new people will be there to repeat these exact same comments and end up liking the albums anyway, only to again complain about the next one. Give it a few listens, maybe it's not your favourite, maybe it is. Doesn't mean they've failed you in some way, it's their band and they're gonna write the sort of songs they want to.
@@user-oo8oj1hl8k I don't say they have ran out of ideas, but I think the OP has a legit point. Andromeda sounds really good (I love the tone of the rhythm guitar especially. Let's not talk about the too much power metal effect from Pekka's vocie... I don't like it (of course he sings fcking well, the problem is just the compatibility with folk metal...). Also I really don't think Jari's clean vocals were anything like power metal.), but if we look at complexity, number of distinctive riffs in a song... it's not that great.
I just listened to Guardians of Fate for exmple. Not even a huge, popular song, yet it has a lot more layers than Andromeda, so it's more enjoyable. Polyphonic vocal parts here and there, a solo that's short but has at least 2 different parts (instead of repeating the same thing over and over again)...
But maybe most importantly, they didn't have to do this "let's repeat the chorus a few tones higher at the end of the song". It's a legit, old technique but it's very effective at murdering a song. Randomly listening to some truly epic songs like Treacherous Gods, Little Dreamer, Token of Time, Lai Lai Hei, Tale of Revenge, Sword Chant, Into Battle... NONE of them have this sht.
Power metal-like clean vocals... can get used to it, afterall technically it's really good.
Song structure almost as simple as a rock... ehh, as long as there are a few great riffs, it's kind of OK.
But this thing at the end of it... is painful. Same for Rum, Women, Victory. They do the fcking same there, though not as unabashedly as here. Would be a better song without it.
I love the band and the members, I feel bad for saying bad things about some of their newest stuff (Though I like Two Paths for example. It's just pure "specialness", lots of Markus clean vocals, Netta, great lyrics, etc.. I like it a lot. But it got destroyed by the terrible pops and clicks by the cd manufacturers...), and I ordered the biggest "package" available to support them, but I think I just miss the genuinely, naturally well written songs like the ones I mentioned far above (without the power metal clean vocals...).
