I hadn't even heard of this band when I checked them out and wow, what a surprise! On Napalm, too! Gotta agree with the voice-over bit but I'll definitely get this one when I can. Required listen for any fan of folk metal, for sure.

This album is definetely as epic and bombastic as it was made out to be. It is fantastic. Very atmospheric.

I've had a chance to go through a couple tracks and this is VERY entertaining... Just fun to listen to. I love the epic style, very engrossing.

I generally know a few folk kinda bands like the gimmes such as Finntroll, but am I missing anything that's similar to this?

Thanks for the review.

I dunno, I have a CD by Turisas and this is way better IMO.

Great Album, nice mix of a clear woman's voice with a Death metal one, with some folkish element. 94/100 for me.

Well... tis no bad. ain't real good ever... Entertaining with really dull moments... It's like if Rhapsody did a Turisas album with a female singer... Only problem is I prefer both these band whose formula felt "forced" to me... 60/100

Dope.

I love this album. But what happened to the chick? She was hot in Tacere, but looks like a portly coal miner in the album photos.

No matter. I digs it, yo!
