That's cute. I have several longer songs in my library. Crimson by Edge of Sanity is my favorite at 40 minutes.

Doesn't count it's divided into multiple tracks.

It's not on the actual album. It's only divided on Spotify and the like.

I applaud you for becoming more tolerant of harsh vocals though. Jari is one of the best in the business. He is also the vocalist/guitarist for Wintersun. I'm a total fanboy. What's your favorite Ensiferum song so far, Kar?


I don't hear any power whatsoever from Ensiferum, so I don't know where you guys are getting that from. Maybe I'm not listening to the right songs.

And I couldn't really say at this point.

The actual album is too. Just because Swano has one song listened doesn't mean the cd isn't divided into multiple tracks.

In other news I got the last metal package I was expecting. It had Church of Void's EP Winter Is Coming on cassette, Airdash's Hospital Hallucinations and Impaled Nazarene's Suomi Finland Perkele on vinyl.

And damn is that SFP cover awesome. Not only is red my favorite color but its shiny on the cover :o

The last package I'm expecting is filled with rock'n'roll.

Wanderer. Their songs with triumphant-sounding clean choruses and keyboard-driven melodies tend to draw the label.

Iron Maiden/Death metal fanboys might find Sotajumala/Deathchain split interesting. It has two songs from each band, one new and one Iron Maiden cover. On Prowler (second Sotajumala song) they even got Paul Di'anno singing it.

If Tubular Bells wasn't broken up into parts one and two, it would be almost 50 minutes. :unsure:

Only listened to Three-faced Pilgrim and With a Thorn in Our Hearts. They are good for what they are but not really my kind of black metal.

In Your Midnight Orchard was my favorite song.

This album is more about Hebrew mythology (the Great Flood myth). The first and third songs are my favorite.

Get your seasoning Kar. Your hat's going to get rekt.


And I thought putting on an 8 minute song in the car would piss my non-metalhead friends off back in high school. It did.
Lars Ulrich: Hello, Dave. Look at your band. Now back to mine. Now back at your band. Now back to mine. Sadly, your band isn't mine, but if they stopped playing pure thrash metal and switched to a tough guy version of Motley Crue, they could sell like they're Metallica! Look down, back up, where are you? You're on the high road, taking it higher like a super collider. That album was great. What's in your hand, back at me. I have it, it's a hard drive with all the private information of the users we banned from Napster. Look again, the hard drive is now Babymetal. Anything is possible when your band reeks of pop. I'm wearing a thong.

That's some mighty fine Aussie metal.

Okay, my teacher said we have to do songs of protest and that epic Amon Amarth song is invalid because it offends people (Sorry Polska.)

Should I just go with something from RaTM or do you guys have something better that's school appropriate?
