Description: New CD ENSIFERUM -Thalassic- with Bonus Track from Japan Description Description The first theme album by the Finnish folk metal band. Beautiful folkish melodies, grandiose arrangements, intense riffs, and choruses that will have you singing along. There is no way that any heavy metal fan wouldn't be excited to hear this. Ensiferum is a Finnish folk metal band. They released their eponymous debut album in 2001. Their melodic extreme metal, boldly incorporating elements of folk music, quickly gained huge popularity. Since then, they have released high-quality works at a rate of one every few years. They have released seven full-length albums to date. There have been many member changes, and in 2004, frontman Jari Maaenpaa left the band to focus on his work with Wintersun. However, rather than stopping in the face of such a crisis, the band has continued to perform even better and has continued to be at the forefront of the scene since then. Ensiferum's eighth album, "Tarassic," has just been released. "Tarassic" means "of the sea" in old Greek. Somewhat unexpectedly, this is Ensiferum's first theme album. All of the songs are related to the sea or water. Regarding this work, bassist/vocalist Sami Hinka said, "We took a step forward musically while also utilizing the good parts of our old sound." To break this down, while [Talassic] maintains Ensiferum's favorite formula of grand orchestration + folk music elements + metal, it emphasizes a more straightforward heavy metal aspect compared to their previous works [One Man Army] (2015) and [Two Paths] (2017). Beautiful folkish melodies, grandiose arrangements, intense riffs, choruses that will make you sing along. In addition to the familiar Ensiferum trademarks, the clean vocals of new keyboardist Pekka Montin add even more color to the song. How can you not shake your head when listening to this? Is there any heavy metal fan who doesn't get adrenaline pumping when listening to this? Ensiferum is a band that encapsulates the essence of heavy metal. It is sure to excite not only extreme metal fans but also traditional heavy metal fans. The Japanese edition will include bonus tracks.
