Our Take

Album Review: ENSIFERUM - Winter Storm

Finnish folk metal outfit ENSIFERUM have returned with their latest epic offering, Winter Storm. Known for their unique blend of melodic hooks and thunderous riffs, the band certainly does not disappoint on this release.

From the moment the opening track, "Frostbitten Warriors" kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. The soaring vocals of Petri Lindroos combined with the blistering guitar work of Markus Toivonen create a sonic landscape that is nothing short of breathtaking.

But it's not just the instrumental prowess that sets ENSIFERUM apart; it's their ability to weave tales of ancient battles and mythical creatures into their lyrics that truly captures the imagination. Tracks like "Sword of Ice" and "Winter's Wrath" transport the listener to a frost-covered battleground where warriors battle against the elements.

The production on Winter Storm is crisp and clear, allowing every instrument to shine through. The intricate drum work of Janne Parviainen and the haunting keyboard melodies of Netta Skog combine perfectly to create a sound that is both modern and timeless.

Overall, Winter Storm is a triumph for ENSIFERUM, showcasing their musical abilities and storytelling prowess. So grab your sword and shield, wrap up warm, and prepare to be swept away by the frostbitten fury of Winter Storm.
