I wrote this for my site a while back. I think it deserves a topic here. Awesome thing for an awesome board. XD!


Throw out all you bad music like pop, nu-metal, rap, country and pretty much anything that isnt real metal and get these guys: Ensiferum. They are so good that they will make you deficate in your pants when you first listen to them. This is good because you can listen to great music and not have to waste money on laxitives.

Ensiferum, like a few great metal bands, comes from Finland. It sounds like they base part of their sound on Children Of Bodom (For all you out there who know who Children Of Bodom is). They take death metal and mix in medieval melodies and sometimes instruments. I know, I know. You're probably saying: "That sounds like it would be the worst thing in the world, Nebetsu! What are you thinking?" For that: I slap you. It's the best mix of all time. Medieval melodies are fast and crazy. Just like your favourite melodies in things like Children Of Bodom. To get what I'm talking about, just steal the song, "Sword Chant". Why? Because stealing music rules. Anyways: I'm going to go more in depth on the greatest band in the world. To you out there who are saying "Metallica is the greatest band in the world", I slap you.



This is Markus Toivonen. He does the lead guitars, rhythm guitars, solos, acoustic guitars and backing vocals. This guy rules. I love his solos. His solos are crazy, yet they still continue to hold onto the awesomeness of the midieval sound. He's so awesome, seeing him play a guitar would make you fall over in a seizure and start soiling your pants. He just is that awesome.



So I cant tell if this is a girl or a guy either... he/she/it rules. His/her/it's name is Jukka-Pekka Miettinen and he/she/it does the bass guitar and more backing vocals. So what if you can't really hear the bass guitar. He/she/it must rule, since he/she/it is in Ensiferum and they will make you blast your feces into orbit.



This guy who looks like he is in desperate need of anger management or some sort of exorcism is Oliver Fokin. He plays the drums and other percussion instruments. He does such an awesome job at pounding the living snot out of his drums, you'll urinate in your pants. Twice. No... Three times. Maybe four if you're not used to awesome music. This guy just rules.



Last but not least, this is Meiju Enho. This time I know she's a girl. This is the person who they got to play the keyboards. She plays awesome keyboards, but why isnt her pic all scary like everyone elses?

In conclusion: Ensiferum is a band that looks scary and plays awesome music. Unlike Slipknot with their gimmicky masks that take your attention from the garbage they play. If you dont have any Ensiferum, get some or I will come over there and smack you. If you cant get a CD, steal it off the net. Stealing songs off the net is cool and a sure fire way to make yourself look like a rebel. In fact: go to your friends and say that you steal music off the internet in a real rebelious voice. It's a sure fire way of getting you beaten u.... I mean respected. Remember: Ensiferum is better than the junk you listen to. If you ever want to challenge this, send me song titles in the email and I will tell you how you have bad taste in music.

Just try some Ensiferum. Get the song "Sword Chant". By the way: Slipknot is *gasps* mainstream!

Fine I'll stop mocking Slipknot. Ensiferum is kinda like Children Of Bodom.

Children Of Bodom and Ensiferum are two of the best bands ever.

What does it matter if Slipknot's mainstream or not........................ Don't tell me you're one of those elitist whitewash "underground" types.

Mainstream doesn't matter really, its the musicial talent of the band.

Slipknot, has very little musicial talent in my eyes, but than again so does Children Of Bodom. I find both bands extremely overrated but since I never pass a chance at hearing a new band, I'll download some songs by Ensiferum.

"To you out there who are saying "Metallica is the greatest band in the world", I slap you."

Metallica is ONE of the greatest bands of all time. And don't bring up the whole "They're not good anymore blah blah blah". It happens to 99.9% of bands that have been around for a good while.

Anyway, as far as Slipknot goes, I listen to them. But I'm not a total die-hard fan. I was back in high school, but that was over four years ago and I've been exposed to soooo much more music since then and I can say now that they're decent, but nothing to freak out over. I can't really say they did a lot for music itself, they're just another band as far as I'm concerned. They put on one kick ass show though. =D

Anyway, I definitely plan on checking out this band. S'matter of fact, I'll go look for it after I'm done with this post. Why?

Because metal + Finland = win

So now apparently, according to Apple, Alexi Laiho isn't a talented lead guitarist. Funny. And COB's keyboardist isn't skilled and has no musical abilities either.

Those two make the band. While COB doesn't write the greatest songs around, they're efficient and the two mentioned are definitely good at their instruments.

Blah. I put the statements in the wrong order but meh. I don't like Children Of Bodom and I never have. I'll give the guitarist props for having talent but the band is still way too overrated.

Yes they are ONE of the greatest bands of all time. I just cant stand people who will deny the fact that there are bands that are better than Metallica.

Edge of Sanity is greater than....and the asterisk means "wildcard" which basically means anything and everything.

Never listened to Edge of Sanity, but I've heard raving over the Crimson albums... Gonna pick those up shortly. I'm actually planning to order the following from Willowtip:

Cephalic Carnage - Halls of Amenti
Circle of Dead Children - Human Harvest
Commit Suicide - Human Larvae (Earthly Cleansing)
Commit Suicide - Synthetics
Crotchduster - Big Fat Box of Shit
Crowpath - Old Cuts and Blunt Knives
Crowpath - Red on Chrome
Death - Symbolic
Edge of Sanity - Crimson
Edge of Sanity - Crimson II
Goatsblood - Drull
Ion Dissonance - Breathing Is Irrelevant
Martyr - Warp Zone
Martyr - Hopeless Hopes
Mastodon - Leviathan [deluxe]
Necrophagist - Epitaph
Necrophagist - Onset of Putrefaction
Vulgar Pigeons - Summary Execution
Vulgar Pigeons - Imperialism
The Year of Our Lord - The Year of Our Lord

Great label, and most their CDs are only $10 (that's including shipping). Everyone oughta go to willowtip.com and download the second Crotchduster MP3 listed on the front page... Hilarious stuff. "I spread mammal sauce on my waaaaang" Please sit through the whole song... You might retch at first. But then, you might retch after it's all over.

Wow, it's nice to finally find some more metalheads for once!

Just to get my opinion of Ensiferum out of the way, they are pretty good, but Finntroll are better, if you haven't checked them out yet, do so! Go to The Finntroll Homepage and learn more.

My sister's got some Finntroll CDs... I forgot about that. She's also got Immortal and other black metal stuff... I should borrow them.

I highly doubt Martyr and TYOOL are Christian bands. But then, I'm not all too familiar with them...I just like what I've heard.
