Jari Mäenpää, the lead guitarist and singer, is for Wintersun, what is Tuomas for Nightwish. A great composer, a poet, the man behind everything, Fan Fact: He is missing a third of his right lung due to tuberculosis he suffered back in 1997 while he was in the army

[@Mattigriplock]

Nice reaction! Next up from Wintersun is Time from same reherseal, even a better song in my opinion! A masterpiece:D

[@Killermcknight]

Added!

[@mfacenet2785]

Did you happen to recognize the drummer? I'm still watching so don't know if there's a call out, but that's Kai Hato who is also the Nightwish drummer. The bassist Jukka Koskinen has also been playing with Nightwish since Marko left, not sure what the long term on that is tho.

[@Killermcknight]

Oh boy did I thank you for answering my question! I asked that very thing!

[@RonniePeterson]

Another reactor discovers Wintersun. Please now you have found them spread the word. This band and their music needs a much much wider audience. Great reaction. Thank you.

[@juhanivartiala352]

I critizise the lenght too. Its too short😄

[@wanmac31]

😁🤘 FI

[@jeffbowden8367]

Way too short 🤯😍

[@isiarndt1590]

😂😂😂 I'm dying of laughter. Thanks.

[@billtbodger]

The Drummer is Hai Hahto, who is also drummer for Nightwish since 2015, The Bass player Jukka is playing for Nightwish on the current tour as well. I love Wintersun, the whole album describes the seasons so well both musically and lyrically.

[@turbouffe]

There you go! The power from the far North! These guys just give the sh-t about radio, tv etc and just enjoy doing good music! Greeting from SWEDEN!

[@wolverine669]

Kai Hahto is also a drum teacher, especially the ergonomics of playing. He also played in the latest Darkwoods My Betrothed album w/ Tuomas from Nightwish. An old Finnish black metal band that released a new album after two decades.

[@Killermcknight]

That's awesome

[@Martin-re8ei]

Yes, check them out

[@stevecain6377]

That's why they call Kai the "Human Metronome". :D Jari is the primary composer, on the same level as Tuomas from Nightwish. Check out "Time" from the live rehearsal, I like that song even more than this one. 🤘 🤘

[@GustafB]

Jari just needs some more Time II get his compositions complete.

[@clivematthews5296]

And now you know why Kai Hahto the drummer joined Nightwish in 2014 and now the bassist, Jukka, is also playing with Nightwish on recent gigs.

[@hannadegerlund3227]

Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮🤘

[@crazyjoedavola7493]

Wintersun is everything!

[@ntak8262]

Holy shit Finland 👊🇫🇮❤️

[@EmAllWasTaken]

First we get Jinjer and now Wintersun. Both are truely bingeworthy and have high quality discographies.

[@davidwatson22]

You can see how the drummer found his way to Nightwish. And I think this bass player is also in Nightwish replaced Marko . Checkout the Nightwish virtual gig

[@juhanivartiala352]

"Land of snow and sorrow" and also "loneliness" has grown to my favourites. Finnish melancholic traditions are heard on these. Its in the blood.

[@ravenwda007]

Wintersun is more melodic death, folk, and black metal than pure death.

[@124Spider5]

Killermcknight. As you've said, Wintersun was requested since your Nightwish reactions, because Kai Hahto the drumer his nowadays also Nigthwish's drumer. Btw also Jukka Koskinen Wintersun's bassist, his the seession bassist for the next year live concerts.

[@tapio7133]

They recorded song Time first, this was second song in this session.

[@Killermcknight]

Hopefully they had breaks in between!!

[@zfgdun]

They'd be cool at a live show

[@Patralgan]

If you want more impressive screaming voice performance by Jari, check Eternal Darkness (Autumn) (it's my all time favorite song since it gives me everything I ever wanted from a metal song) and if you want to hear more impressive clean vocals, check Loneliness (Winter). Both absolutely stellar songs, though they are both also very long songs, but in my opinion that's a great thing since they are exactly the length they needed to be. That's what I love about this band that there's no rush. They're the full musical journey experiences.

[@residenteviljolteon]

Should check out Time and Loneliness by them as well!

[@wanmac31]

😊🇫🇮❤️🤘🎶🎹🎸🥁✨👍 Only from 🇫🇮 😁🎶🤘✨

[@Pave999]

Time II D-49 😎

[@jeffbowden8367]

🔥symphonic death metal 🔥🤘🤯❤️🇬🇧

[@music2seeconcertphotograph457]

There's also a drum through with Kai Hahto on KZbin aka "The Human Metronome" aka "The Beast"

[@WDC_wolf]

It's more black metal than death metal influences here I think. Wintersun is a great band, we need more reactions to their music here for sure.

[@torbjornsjooander5625]

Meshuggha Bleed Drumcam HEAVY 😏

[@ThaBeatConductor]

You're not the first reactor to compare Jari's screams to old In Flames.

[@laurentyvangurewitch3940]

You want heavier from Nightwish? Check out Master Passion Greed- it will seperate you from your socks and then put them back on.

[@Killermcknight]

😎 already covered it 🤘🤘

[@KreshDraven6]

Perfection in music form. This song is an absolutely masterpiece ! Sad that today Jari (the main composer, vocalist, lyricist and used to be one of Wintersun's guitarists) turned out to be such a lame guy that's more interested in selling Wintersun wallpapers and doing podcasts than releasing new music...

[@Pappa_66]

Thank you very much! You realize these are not "songs" they are compositions / journeys. Like real music not Green Day.
