The remnants of what used to be one of the largest forests in Europe still conceal its share of mysticism and magic. Many a creepy tale originated from the German Black Forest and from the very same Black Forest hails the pagan folk metal band aptly named Finsterforst . For their upbeat display of pagan mastery on their previous album, they have garnered much deserved attention across the folk scene. Yet they have been criticized for sounding like Moonsorrow. Some people you can never satisfy. Somewhere along the road, people have seemed to forget that folk metal has its deepest roots in Germany.

...Zum Tode Hin was far far far better. This release bored me to death, almost felt asleep. Huge let down.

Not something I would listen to often, but surprisingly enjoyable and cheese-free for me

After first listening it was just good, but now it grew for me to excellent album. This isn't boring music, you just need to understand the beauty of it.

The album is very good ... Making music is very good ... Of space with traditional instruments have very beautiful album ..... But I do not think this would take first place in the standings .... But in general, is to go higher

Thanks again MS awards, this is pretty epic. Sounds a lot like Moonsorrow yes, but it's different enough.
