Ensiferum - Iron (2004) Reviewed on 8/6/04 |
Good Nation: Finland Album Genre: Viking/Folk Metal Pros: The highlight of this album for me is the Folk portions of it. While the heavier Viking elements are a great accompaniment, I really think the band's writing shines when they do their softer folkish parts. Highlights include the heavier "Slayer of Light" and the Celtic folk song "Lai Lei Lei." Cons: Can be repetitive in the harder portions. |
