You can't talk about the true greats of folk-inspired melodic death metal without reverent mention of Ensiferum, and with Two Paths they once more affirm their place in the pantheons of the genre. Further building upon the thrilling metallic hybrid honed across six full-lengths, Two Paths is simultaneously the Finnish quintet's most epic and far-reaching collection and their most organic, which definitely sets it apart from the pack. "When we made 'One Man Army' (2015), we wanted it to sound more like a live album than a traditional studio album. With 'Two Paths', we took that to the next level with analog recording, cutting down tracks and even recording songs without a click, and because of that there is a totally different kind of groove compared to most modern metal albums," states bassist/vocalist Sami Hinkka. While their ideas are huge and they consistently prove they have the talent to back them up, the band maintains the grounded MO that has served them so well over the years, with the results speaking for themselves. "It all comes down to writing music that sounds good to us and is fun to play live, and I would say with 'Two Paths' we've done everything better than we ever have before."

Superados en número pero nunca solos, estamos de pie Outnumbered but never alone, we stand Valientes guerreros, hachas en nuestras manos. Brave warriors, axes in our hands El símbolo de la iluminación The symbol of enlightenment El secreto del acero The secret of steel Tallado en los corazones de los libres. Carved in the hearts of the free Forjado en fuego eterno Forged in eternal fire Endurecerse bajo la lluvia helada Harden in the frozen rain Hay algo más fuerte que la carne mortal. There is something stronger than mortal flesh que nos une como uno That unites us as one Para aquellos a punto de luchar por el metal. For those about to fight for metal Dioses de la guerra los saludan a todos Gods of war salute you all Para aquellos que nunca bajarán su espada For those who'll never lower their blade Somos hermanos de sangre hasta el final. We're blood brothers till the end El sonido de los arcaicos cuernos de batalla. The sound of archaic battle horns Libera la bestia dentro de todos nosotros. Releases the beast within us all Únete a nosotros para luchar por el amanecer del metal. Join us to fight for the metal dawn O uno por uno caerás Or one by one, you will fall ¡Déjame escuchar tu grito de batalla! Let me hear your battlecry! ¡Levanten sus espadas en alto! Raise your swords up high! Para aquellos a punto de luchar por el metal. For those about to fight for metal Dioses de la guerra los saludan a todos Gods of war salute you all Para aquellos que nunca bajarán su espada For those who'll never lower their blade Somos hermanos de sangre hasta el final.

[@joecaswell]

[@tomdodds5862]

Love it

[@dentodili]

I swear the more i listen to it, the more i think it's some sort of Manowar tribute, like Sabaton's song with the same purpose. Just that Manowar have used that same vocabulary so much that in my head they sort of own it XD Yeah i know Ensiferum are also about the same things, but this song kinda gets me even further.

[@JoelPerez-de1iu]

There is a great atmosphere!!! Amazing song!!!

Existe un plagio para mí una canción muy similar si la escucháis y es por parte de mago de Oz en su canción el abordaje, en relación al tema de Ensiferum

Мои аплодисменты! Отлично!

[@dubselectorr345]

What happened to Netta Skog?!!

[@J4ymzz]

She left because of personal reasons

[@franz-2943]

Netta left Ensiferum at December 2017. :( instagram.com/ensiferummetal/p/Bc9POOmH_r3/ She do nowadays her own solo stuff and also play with many other bands and artist. Example last year (2018) she played with Nightwish few times as guest.

[@dubselectorr345]

Noooo that sucks!

[@franz-2943]

Do you know that Netta Skog was session musician in One man army -album before she joined to the band. She sings and plays accordion very well in Neito Pohjolan. She also sings part on Cry for the Earth bounds.

[@dubselectorr345]

I did not know that. Thats cool. Sucks she left

[@Mardoll666]

México yes 😀😀

Interestingly, the band grow older but that front row didn't.

[@Fab_Rice]

Now, no one can say the F*rst word here!

[@guillearg7198]

Not Enough Volume!!

[@CarlosCortes-uq9ic]

There is plagiarism for me a very similar song if you listen to it and it is by the Mago de Oz band in his song the approach, in relation to the Ensiferum theme

[@zZGzHD]

ngl i didn't like way of the warrior but this album is fire

[@readbooks6370]

I'm about fight for you and metal, guys. Always For years I had this idea, while listening to you. Instead of power metal drums you may try to experiment with absolutely different types of percussion. IMHO It sounds much better than drum set, + people get use to it. Btw do you notice, In trap music hihat not fixed in tone. You have to experiment to made something outstanding and new. Each drum is a tone, so it can be another Melody line. I think this drum sound doesn't really fit with beautiful melodies and composition. (Not to upset drummer). Btw source of drum idear is darbuka, original African jembe, deep fank, experimental jazz. Rammstein payed with tom sound, Slipknot uses huge percussion sound. It can be something new. I wish you always be alive. One of my favorite bands.

The keyboard player seems to be invisible.

click Like, 1st second, after riff starts

[@senkrigar5474]

[@ms.felonystrutter2472]

I am a lifer meta head but I am sorry but this MAN O WAR, DORO type songs "Fight for Metal" are so fucking embarrassing. Metal is not under attack people. Metal will always be around.
