I still remember the first time I heard them, my brother bought one of their albums when I was about 9 or 10 and they were actually one of the heavier bands that initially got me interested in metal.
Same here... For me it was late 2001, though I got into them via a school friend. Though, when I invited him round to my place to listen Weathered - as we both went out I bought it the weekend after it's UK release - we didn't expect this song... 😮
I'd post the whole album, but it's not even all uploaded onto YouTube yet. I saw her live on Wednesday (for the third time :blushing:) and it's an album that was worth the wait.
Haven't listen to Wintersun in a WHILE. I still remember when this album first came out. I recently found out that Jari Maenpaa served in the military . kind of makes sense though, considering a lot of Wintersun's lyrics .
The beginning of this song is so epic. Its like an anthem.
