Now that Ensiferum have released two full-length albums with Petri in the line-up, the long-awaited duel is open. Swordsmen, take arms against each others and seal this heroic destiny! Which captain shall you follow into the battle?

PS: This is not just about vocals or guitar skills: it's about Ensiferum before and after Jari's departure.

Poll

Ensiferum's best vocalist/guitarist (so far...)?

I love Jari's vocals. But Not nearly as much as Petri's. I think his voice just fits the music better then Jari's did. Plus I'm a big Norther fan

A 91 year old metalhead? Cool!

Age means nothing when it comes to metal

Except you're not actually 91, right? At least according to your profile. This is some kind of joke, I guess.

It was a joke for awhile. until l I just stopped caring

thier are tons of old metalheads

I have to go with Petri. I am a big fan of Norther and his vocals. "From Afar" is also their best album so far IMO.

Although I don't think there is a big difference between these guys.

Right, but "old" metalheads are rarely (not never) more than 40-50 year-old, you must admit a 91 year old headbanger would be quite a surprise. And his neck probably wouldn't take much headbanging before breaking and his metalhead rolls on the stage

yeah headbanging really sucks when thier is a 97% chance that you well break every bone in your body

I think Jari's era is the better era. Petri is definitely not a bad growler, but if I had to choose, Jari is just awesome.

I much prefer Jari, but I suppose that's due to the fact that the majority of Ensiferum I listen to is from their first album.
His vocals on "Old Man" are great. I don't mind Petri though the vocals for "from afar" are good as well but I prefer Jari.
