Wintersun - New Album In The Works


Don't say you didn't ask for it. Apparently there is a new Wintersun record in the making. Yes, Wintersun not Winterstorm. The band's mainman Jari Mäenpää has checked in with a statement which can be read in full down under.

Statement from Jari as follows: "Guys, I am working on an album, several in fact, like I’ve updated you many times and will keep updating. One of these albums is coming along nicely and it’s a strong possibility it’s going to be the next one. This album is way bigger production than The Forest Seasons and it presents whole new challenges for me vocally, guitar playing and production wise. Even song writing wise, ’cause as you know I like to learn and explore different composition styles and not write the same stuff over and over again, which would be easy. So I have to (and want to) constantly evolve and get better in every way. Development and learning new skills takes time. Many of these new challenges I’ve already conquered and I’m very happy with the results, some challenges still are ahead, but we are close to victory. And as Wintersun fans you guys already know that I am not going to release anything until I’m completely happy with it. And I’m guessing you wouldn’t want me to do that either, to release something unfinished. So just relax and enjoy the ride, I have a plan!"

Agreed. Atavistia just announced a new album. Everyone keep your eye on that.

I was trying to be funny, made a lame joke, since people have waited forever for the sequel to Time I (so Time II ?!). Homophones "two" and "to".

Non news tbh, there is no confirmation on anything here. Jari has been saying this for decades now.

Iron Maiden, Manowar, Metallica…. The this their best 3-4 albums only in 5 five years. Doing an album in 5 years is a bad omen.

10 years from first to second album worked quite well for Wormed

Haha, that's like saying "compose your own Metal album and upload it here, instead of writing a review of an album". :lol:

It's taken longer to get the second part of a supposed "double album" from them than it was to get from their debut to Time I in the first place! It's been a while since I've followed these guys, just because the whole Time saga has become a running joke that has run itself into the ground. At least release some studio versions of "The Way of the Fire" and "Silver Leaves" as singles or something and call it a day.

I bet he's going to ask for more money at some point from fans.

As a musician Jari is a genius, but all else regarding Wintersun he's a joke.

If the next release of Wintersun delays more time... the Nightwish will finally absorb all Wintersun group membres.

So, listen to me: Wintersun will become Nightwish. Time will come (but not Time the album).

Je, je, je.

Ha, I wonder if their album will ever see the light of day! If they keep dragging it out for a few more years, they might just earn the title of "biggest procrastinators of all time" . I like them because I'm somewhat like that too. In college, I always wait until the last minute to do my homework, but luckily, https://essays.edubirdie.com/personal-statement-writing helps me out, and I manage to get everything done on time. Nevertheless, I really enjoy their creativity, and I can't wait to hear what they've come up with.

Literally coming out this year though... It's been announced a while back. Even already dated on MS for 30th of August 2024. Link
