Wow this review could of been dec but your immaturity ruined it. I can understand taking stabs at The Faceless but Necrophagist too?

Yet another pretentious writer who refuses to take criticism. gblackman II?
The writers here are, for the most part, VERY, very good. Don't reject their criticism just because you disagree with them.
One thing about writing about an extremely well-respected album like this one is that the bar is automatically raised very high. Your review isn't bad. But it's not good, either. You stoop to childish insults far too often (one or two is okay, lol) and don't really go into depth about the technical problems with the band.
I'm going to go ahead and agree with Thor and guess that you probably don't like the genre as a whole very much, as the things you dislike about this album are sort of trademarks.

devsol...this is not power metal.

Power metal is cheese-filled music by the likes of Hammerfall

True, it is a bit difficult to pin Wintersun down to just one genre.

I guess that's why it's so good! You know a band is unique when you struggle to put them into a genre.

True, it is a bit difficult to pin Wintersun down to just one genre.

This is clearly power metal, the only difference between this and your typical power metal band is that this has harsh vocals. It's laughable if you actually think that this is some sort of fusion of genres.

yeah this really isn't that difficult to categorise them, they're not really doing anything different or unique - i mean come on it's just power metal with folk and melo death influences. This Message Edited On 01.27.09

On metal archives it says epic melodic death metal. I can't agree with the death metal bit but it's certainly epic! In fact, I'd say it's more melodic black metal than melo death. Especially the vocal style.
