Which would you say is better this or Kivenkantaja? I have most of their other stuff exept these two



Also my first comment :D




it's about the same imo



also I put down my rating to a 4. I still love it but the lack of variation (like the folk interludes in Verisakeet) kind of bugs me now I listen more. still a great, great album.



verisakeet > v: havitetty > voimasta ja kunniasta = kivenkantaja = this > suden uni



for me



Also good review Crysis :]

I listened to Havitetty last night driving home and I realized this doesn't compare in terms of quality, guess that kind of sealed the fate for the 3.5 review.

Yeah, it's a good bit better. Nice review.



Can't believe there isn't a Torn Beyond Reason rip yet.

Hmmm if it's not as good as V: Havitetty then I could imagine that I'll have this in the 3.5/low 4 range as well.

It's quite a bit different so you may even prefer this to Havitetty. Either way it's 100% worth a listen.

'Is it superb? No. Is it excellent? Absolutely.'



That's a 4 then. No?

If you strictly stick by the broad sputnik rating descriptions (which in my opinion need some re-working). See my first comment.



Thanks Jared and Gmork

Fair enough, still think you could have replaced 'excellent' with 'great'. Good review is pos'd nontheless as I did with your Marrow review dispite disagreeing with it entirely.



This only just dropped through my door today so only listened to the first 3 tracks but have the feeling this won't be up there with Havitetty.

Yeah when I wrote that part I thought it might confuse people but just went with it anyway. Might think of a better word than "excellent" or "great" later but right now I'll leave it as is.

I wouldn't worry about it, your writing is pretty great (far better than I could muster without question) and conveys your thoughts on the record really well. Just me being a pedant ;)

I've listened this a couple of times and I can already say that it's better than V:Hävitetty which I never liked much. The theme works great on this album, but I still need to listen it more.

I agree with this review immensely. I wish I hadn't been expecting so much more, but damn. Even the title track off Tulimyrsky destroys this in its 30-minute entirety.



Yeppers. Great review Kyle, album is sadly slipping into 2.5 range for me, way too mid-paced and boring for my liking.

I thought the title track on Tulimyrsky was extremely boring.

This album surely doesn't give everything it has to offer without reading the lyrics and seeing how the story progresses song by song. I think it's very essential to know the story, if one really wants to get into the core of this album.
