Wonder if he have re-recorded the vocals in recent times or if the vocals are from his early days with Ensiferum?

[@MaddJakd]

Have you actually seen some of the haters flip? I was ready to give 2 of them grief on IG and they were mysteriously absent

[@MaddJakd]

​@nxmxdmusic I've yet to see any valid criticisms. It's all "crowdfunding = satan spawn" and folk moaning because they legit haven't the slightest clue what goes into music production when you aren't some indie bedroom gig 😂 let alone trying to mix something as packed as what he's cooking. Even the "time between releases" moaning is off-point in the end. This aint that rap garbage where you're irrelevant for not vomiting oit something every 2 months somehow.

[@Lleanlleawrg]

​@@MaddJakdI've seen a couple flip, yeah. Just a couple, and at least one of them admitted that he was just being an obnoxious troll. I think there are some valid criticisms - like that it's possible to work out other arrangements for recording and mixing and releasing music. People do it all the time. But Jari wanted it done his way, and while I personally respect that, I think it is a valid criticism. Does anyone know what mixing/editing software Jari uses for his music production btw? Is it protools or what exactly is it?

[@MaddJakd]

@@Lleanlleawrg IDK. They're far from the fist band with ultra-extended time between releases, and I don't (typically) see those fandoms going as crazy as this crowd. That and I can certainly vouch for and extreme few of these other bands puting out anything that hits like Wintersun. I've been under the impression that Jari is part audio engineer. I personally can't blame hime for taking the chance. When he could legit make a "2.0" mix of the first album, it would seem like the right move not to use someone else's services since it didn't exactly work out the first time. Besides, at this point, it seems they're in a position to make things happen.

@nxmxdmusic , Why, because their doing something that no one does ? Because he is not following the flock like you do? Yes, it's just symphonic/ melodic death metal...but done exceptionaly. And yes there are a lot of other symphonic/melodic death metal bands but I'm sorry to dissapoint you, they are not doing the same thing, as you say. But if you believe that, it's fine, for me that only means you're delusional and that you have no ideea about metal music at all. Peace !!!

@nxmxdmusic 1. I listen to black metal for more then 25 years now but if you compare Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth with Wintersun, you are delusional for sure :))) 2. That means you have no idea about this industry. You're obviously a kvlt dude , mentioning D. B and C.O.F:)))) 3. I'm not an elitist , I actually hate that label, but you obviously are :)

I beg to differ on the visuals, they are terrible AI animations. But whatever, music sounds good and the static art seems to be genuine, AI was just used to animate it for the promo.

[@walkinginshapes845]

@nxmxdmusic Well I listened to almost all the bands you name here and none of them even compare in my opinion. If it sounds the same to you, that's fair, but the fact is that it doesn't haha. I guess it all comes down to personal preferences and opinions and if you don't "get it" then why are you even here? Why bother? Clearly this band is special to a lot of people, if you think it's generic, move on and listen to what you like. There are hundreds of bands that i just don't like at all, but are very popular. I don't know why people like them, but whatever.

[@walkinginshapes845]

@nxmxdmusic Also I would like to add; this comment "It's literally just Melodic Death Metal with Symphonic elements" is like saying Chopin's music is just a fucking piano. There are millions of other pianists who make same kind of music. Why is his music praised more? Because there's levels my friend.

Excuse me while I scrape up my melted face from those Storm leads.

[@michaelvdbgd]

Anybody knows who played that solo? Teemu or Jari?

[@ilikevideos4868]

​@@michaelvdbgd I would like to know that too

[@bobvanka]

Question is: Will it be the Winter Madness or Beautiful Death solo of the album?

[@AUM_-po9sc]

​@@bobvanka, "Storm" one is more akin to "Beautiful Death", I think. "The Way Of The Fire"'s two solos are closer to "Winter Madness".

[@AUM_-po9sc]

​@@michaelvdbgd, most likely Jari, since it was in 2006-2008.

[@narmagil7524]

I am almost in tears hearing all this. Sounds amazing! But as such I think you would expect nothing less from Jari and the rest of this amazing band. Sure it has taken a long time. I'm almost 49 now and I started listening to Jari already in Ensiferum. Been listening to his brilliance just about 2 decades. But when I finally get my hands on this finalized product later this year. I know I will cry even before I'll listen any music on it. Call me sentimental but I'd like to spend a day or 2 as a fly with Jari in the studio just listening what his one of a kind mind produces.

[@MikaTarkela]

It's crazy that Time II was already recorded in 2006 but it just took years of audio engineering to finish it.. At least that's what Teemu said in his interview.

[@narmagil7524]

@@MikaTarkela Yeah. That is true. Jari said a long time ago that the technology wasn't there yet to produce this record at that time. I can only imagine how many tracks he has in one song. I have dabbled all my life with music basically since I was a child and I have struggled also with PC's Cubase Pro or Mac's Logic Pro with songs that have a lot of tracks. But they have to be massive and in Jari's case I don't think that my massive means just about next to nothing.

[@MikaTarkela]

@@narmagil7524 Yep his visions are massive and what we've seen from his daw projects there really are a large number of tracks and instruments. It doesn't bother me at all because it all sounds awesome! I just somehow had no idea that the tracks were as "old" as they are heheh. But then again, new mixing methods etc make them new.

[@Skjebneflukt]

O.M.G…! Can’t wait!

[@autumnsun2650]

I hope Jari will release it at midnight between 29th and 30th 😅
