2001 was just about to become history when I received this cd in the mail. It was three days before 2002 and I found myself on an airplane home to spend the New Year. The plane had just taxied off the runway as I placed Ensiferum's debut self-titled album in my cd player. I had not heard much about this young Finnish band before I had ordered the CD but was told, since I like Moonsorrow and Finntroll, I would eat this cd up for breakfast lunch and dinner. Well, I am still eating it and it sounds better every fucking time. Read more ›› |

My first experience with growls started by chance when I was searching amazon for new metal and I discovered the genre of viking metal.

Then I searched other sources for this band because amazon did not have it available so I got me a copy via eBay.

The first half of this album sounds like the greatest hits compilation and the second one is just very good. The quality of songwriting here is just ridiculously high! "Token Of Time", "Guardians Of Fate", "Old Man", "Treacherous Gods", "Hero In A Dream" - all these songs are 10/10 super memorable and energetic battle anthems! Truly outstanding work.
---- Glory to the Nation!

Fantasy Metal Project is worth listening to for fans of the first 2 Ensiferum albums. Demos recorded around the same time I believe:
---- Top 500 Albums (ordered & rated) Top 200 Overlooked Albums (with genres) So I Heard You Like Wintersun... (Time II find new bands)
