FINALLY!!! The greatest Viking folk Metal band of all time!

[@Necroticnarcosis]

From Finland comes good metal and proud to be finnish

[@zahrans]

This isn't Týr?

[@Necroticnarcosis]

@@zahrans its ensiferum

[@petesantos5124]

Necroticnarcosis I think he means Tyr is the greatest viking metal band of all time 😁👍

[@Necroticnarcosis]

@@petesantos5124 gotcha

[@SKULLEDBUICK]

"This has been done before" Yeah. By these guys lmao. Them & Finntroll dropped their demos in the late 90s, then soon after in the early 2000s is when the other folk metal bands started to surface. (Korpiklaani, Turisas, Equilibrium, etc.) These guys really helped pave the way for folky, medieval-sounding metal.

[@Angarato86]

Yea you cannot deduct points for this Sori, when they made this song it HASNT been done before. not alot anyway.

[@ristuksenvittu]

Korpiklaani made music with a different name in the 90s.

[@TotalSkillIndex]

Speaking of Ensiferum... more Wintersun please!

[@petertapola8097]

This is the best song ever! I love the build up, you can practically see first a peaceful village, then enemies being spotted, people running to get their weapons, then finally horses galloping at full speed and arrows flying and swords clashing :) At the end people are telling stories around the fireplace for the next generation and sparks are rising to the night air. The song has it all; from the peaceful beginning and end to the thunderous action sequences and a blazing solo and the part in Finnish tugs the heartstrings like no other. I like to think the song is about Finland's history, the crusades and the winter war against Russia come to mind, so that adds to the emotional punch. This is one of the rare cases where such a long runtime is absolutely justified. Not a second is wasted.

[@JakeNukem3D]

AMORPHIS - THE BEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@thecommentguy7701]

Hands down the worst Amorphis song on that album (maybe all albums combined).

[@The_Pony]

that song is just Wonderful. It was the first Amorphis song I'd ever heard actually

[@b.bkrueger1394]

The bee... no! Black winter day please.

[@ristuksenvittu]

@@b.bkrueger1394 I agree, tales from the thousand lakes is a superior album.

[@MrJordwalk]

ENSIFERUM - "HEATHEN THRONE I" + "TUMMAN VIRRAN TAA" + "HEATHEN THRONE II". These three songs should have been released as a single song IMHO, because they're a conceptual trilogy, and listening to them in sequence is an epic time!

[@khellendross3573]

Shoulda scored higher from Sori since her reasoning was that the theme had been done before. This was one of the XU essentials. These guys were one of the first bands to really do the viking metal as we think of it nowadays and still one of the most well known and recognized in that slice of bands that hit this style. Though when we did the folk metal vote I was really hoping for Skyclad who was THE first folk metal band, they just aren't as well known nowadays. If you look at when Ensiferum started, they were really one of the first to that "viking metal" sound. This is probably my second favorite from them (Deathbringer from the Skies is probably my number 1) but it really completely captures what the viking metal sound and thematic vibe is all about. Definitely a folk metal classic!

[@VoIcanoman]

I like Blood is the Price of Glory...and Lai Lai Hei the best (Victory Song is up there too). Such a great band though.

[@bjhellstream]

Oh yeah, Skyclad!

[@solveigh9605]

ensiferum is no viking metal O.o in wiki thats false! ensiferum is one of the best Folk metal bands!

[@rolsen1304]

@@solveigh9605 Guardians of the North is enssential viking metal and Ensiferum.

[@Andre232323232332323]

I'm legitimately impressed you guys did Ensiferum! LOVE IT!

[@benwebb4424]

As far as "this has been done before" - Ensiferum were pretty pivotal for viking metal. They weren't quite first wave viking metal, but first wave viking metal was very steeped in the sound of black metal, where this is where the genre started getting away from that and having richer production and perhaps a bit more melodic focus. Ensiferum are an important band to the genre. And now for a recommendation for something new that I've been digging a lot recently. Fluisteraars - Nasleep

[@Drescher1984]

Ensiferum Twilight Tavern, From Afar are great to.

[@Necroticnarcosis]

After this some moonsorrow

[@blindguardian1979]

yeah!...I've been requesting them for a while...Jumalten Aika, Haaska or Huuto would be all solid reactions

[@drewringwood4590]

Yes

[@Buffalo40]

Indeed 100% Moonsorrow one of the greatest of all times.

[@mizxecio]

@@blindguardian1979 Yeah, all pretty long tracks across the board though, Ruttolehto is a good one on Jumalten Aika for the lyrics and least mistakes in the translation you usually find. I tried requesting a while back but I guess Patreon is the only way.

[@blindguardian1979]

@@mizxecio that's true...a shorter song would be a bit better perhaps but most hteir best songs are the ones that are 12-15min long

[@italiano5150]

Ensiferum are one of the greatest Metal bands on earth!!!! They are also a killer live band! You should react to their brand new song " Rum, Women, Victory", it's pretty awesome and fun!

[@mattgilbert666]

Also should 100% react to their song Death Bringer from the Sky!!

[@KreshDraven6]

Another brilliant song

[@Jurkyification]

That Nordic language was Finnish xD Im just going to leave comment here.

[@dominicblum3304]

They are Finnish its call Norse mythology, Finland Norway and switch are the same

[@bubbaboyhogan4377]

​@@dominicblum3304 Nope. Most of Ensiferum's songs are based on Kalevala - the epos of Finland. For an instance the wandering man (Väinämoinen) is an central character in Kalevala. Those songs including mythology are of course involved with Finnish mythology, fairly similiar to norse one, yet totally different.

[@Slev00]

Loved the first three Ensiform albums! They where one of the mainstream bands I actually enjoy!

[@mattgilbert666]

Not only one of my favourite Ensiferum songs, but on of my all time favourites of all time

[@enki4589]

I love how you guys always listen then react!!!

[@ryankellypa]

My favorite band wish they make more albums

[@LetsGetHighOnMorris]

Wow I haven’t heard this song for about 13 years but it’s still awesome. Used to blast it when playing runescape back in the day lol

[@KreshDraven6]

Classic folk metal. I love the first two albums with Jari, but hands down Victory is their best work. Speaking of Jari, we need some more Wintersun! Time (live rehearsal) or Winter Madness would be SICK

[@awesomereviews1561]

From Afar has some insane songs though.

[@DanasLilMakeup]

Is the key change in the song a decision to help not getting the video taken down? I know this one like the back of my hand haha, love Esiferum they are class. That’s why asked. Also I am super happy to see you reacting to them, this is the album where Petri Lindroos took o we as a vocalist after Jari left to dedicate himself to Wintersun. IMO the best decision ever, we have two great bands and both rule! Listen to Iron, Twilight Tavern, Magic Potion, Vandraren

[@JeremyBarbell]

So true! I like Ensiferum better with Petri. And Wintersun is so awesome as well. I think my favorite Ensiferum song is Smoking Ruins from the From Afar album. It really just feels like perfect viking/folk metal to me.

[@eduardoribeiroucv9630]

Feels weird that they moves their Heads in the wrong tempo of the music

[@piirakkaliisa8340]

they are not nodding in rythm but in understaning

[@mornadu]

Been waiting almost 2 years for Ensiferum. Hope you do more of them, there ari from wintersuns first band.

[@LimonRealConSal]

Es una canción magistral, debería estar en el top de las mejores canciones jamás creadas.

[@warrenelkins1861]

The Hu & Alien Weaponry both do non-european folk metal you should check them out for a more diverse folk metal scene .

[@Bonehead777]

Yeah, a better song to listen to for Ensiferum is Into Battle. Epic guitar work and riffs. Victory song is great, but long and complex and takes a bit of getting into.
