it's all good, there's lots coming out this year to hold my time

This is taking so long that I'm beginning to not care about it anymore.

Honestly as long as it's as incredible as their debut I'm down to wait.

No live shows until the album is done? I hope no one is in a hurry to see them then.

Joking aside, it's nice to see an update. Hopefully the wait won't be too much longer

this better be a perfect album

^ This.

They announce so many delays that at this point, they're making it sound like a big deal. I have mixed feelings though...worried about it being too over the top.

For a band with such a ridiculous debut Jari's explaination makes them sound kinda...poor... I suppose that's the nature with some of the good metal bands, but more delays for an already madly delayed album sucks to hear. Still gonna check out the new one as soon as it comes out though, and since I have no clue as to where they were even going to be playing in the upcoming future, I'll survive.

Jari Maenpaa, frontman of Finnish metal act Wintersun has canceled all upcoming Wintersun shows. Here's what he has to say:

We're faggots and terrible musicians.

Thanks for listening!

Jari

Maybe he should stop trying to make an album bigger (overblown) than what he is capable of.

rasputin ftl

I heard they're doing 200 tracks on each song, which is WAY OTT.

Debut was good this will suck.

Debut was good this will suck.

this will ether be really good or really bad, and if its the latter, wintersun is fucked

Its Jari it wont be bad

but the last album was

Looks like he's got the world caving in on him. I don't blame him, giving himself enough time to get his shit straight.

Looking forward to this. I think that the delays have cause expectations to be too high and the album will be very good, but won't meet the expectations.

bummer, but it will be great

I really wish they would at least post an excerpt or two just to give us an idea of what they've been working on for so long. That would at least give rasputin justification for his outspoken and as yet unfounded remarks.

Jari for the win. This will probably rule, considering his previous work.This Message Edited On 03.02.09

Doesnt really affect me that their cancelling shows in Europe. Cuz I don't live there XD, but I still wish they'd come to Canada.

Sad, i've been waiting for so long. :{

I discovered them about a year ago, so I haven't been waiting too long
