I remember enjoying Slania and since it's the only Eluveitie album I've heard I might as well give this a shot. Keeping that sound fresh always seems an unavoidable problem in folk metal.

Perfect review, man. I liked how you commented on their future. I only hope they add something new in their future releases and not releasing another "Hey, we've heard this before" record like, let's say, Amorphis' last record.

This one is probably their best album in terms of the natural flow of tracks. And the intro is epic as fuck (but still not as epic as Slania intro). Best tracks for me are Home and Havoc.

Pos.

Yeah I really enjoyed this even if it is more of the same. Only serious complaint I have is that it's way, way too long.

Yeah, it's good. There's nothing new here but I guess it's still good.

Album is indeed good, but on the long side.



It's Eluveitie, they are fun as hell, especially live, so why I am complaining nobody knows.

Cool, thanks for the feature mods!



Zion - I agree with you as none of the pre-released tracks are among my favorites. And I agree with you and everyone else that the intro is awesome (and so is the outro).



D41V30N - thanks man and I agree with the Amorphis comparison, because they used to be one of my favorite bands but their last album really didn't do anything for me anymore.



And to all, yea, the album is long, but since it has a really nice flow I don't find problem in it. Also, thanks for all the positive comments, I, as always, appreciate them.

Good review dude. Yet to listen to this though, my folk metal kick kinda wore off fairly quick past couple years.

Thanks master of ipods. I have noticed that you've been a lot more low-key as well as of late.
