Well I'll be damned. Independent bands can pull of orchestral without it sounding like crap. In fact, it's actually pretty difficult to believe Enthring did this without any bigger label backing them. The riffs are mature, the symphonic bits don't sound too obviously synthy (most of the time), and the overall song writing just sounds like a band that's been around longer than 5 years.

Enjoy stuff like Equilibrium & Ensiferum, but want a little more aggression? Enthring might just be what you need...

One of the first CD I got. To be most honest I never was fond about Symphonic genres,but listening to Enthring,I freaking started to love other similar bands. One of my fav albums so far,and if we take a moment to appreciate that this album was made without record label,that was self-released,there's nothing much to add then,right?

It's kind of weird, there are great ideas in abundance but the compositions are just falling apart. Too much buildup for too little payoff. And the production is pretty bad too.
