Omnium Gatherum is on hell of a band, that's for sure. Anyone into really diverse melodic death metal with extraordinary melodies and excellent musicianship, check out Elenium ( http://www.eleniumband.com )

Shit! Seems like we'll never run out of good bands here; also check out Total Devastation ( http://www.totaldevastation.org ) and Dauntless ( http://www.come.to/Dauntless ).

Has noone mentioned Horna, Azaghal, Kadotus or Wyrd?

Enochian Crescent is active again, their latest EP (a split with some two other black metal bands... Black Dawn, and another of which name I've forgotten) should be coming out through Woodcut Records soonish.

Throes of Dawn will be releasing their latest album, "Quicksilver Clouds" soon

Torture Killer is working on album "Multiple Counts of Murder" (http://www.torture-killer.cjb.net/)

What about Requiem http://www.requiem.kpnet.com
They are an awesome prog/power/symphonic band from Haapajärvi/ Kokkola, Their debut was "The Arrival" and on january they released their second album "Mask of Damnation"

They totally rock!!!

the new Thyrane album is out for a while now.. what do you think about it?

depending on how many demo's they've made, but i like their black era better above the latest efforts.

my fave finnish bands:

Finntroll
Amorphis
Ensiferum
Omnium Gatherum
Throes of Dawn

 

[toolsofthetrade]

Ensiferum is the best new metal band around in Finland. I don't know when they're gonna release their second album though.

it was a while ago since u posted that one, but Jari (guitarist/singer - whom has exited Ensiferum now) gave me a copy of Iron (and the Tale of Revenge single with the Battery cover).
i like it amazingly

Jari started his own band now, Wintersun. A couple of weeks ago, i did a video for that band. check here to see it.

 

[Salamurhaaja]

Well crap, since no one has mentioned them:
Profane Omen the best finnish metal, ever!
And they don't have a fucking deal, whats up with that?

Oh and I have to mention Thales since
they are awesome as well and no deal, what the hell?

Barathrum,Impaled Nazarene(<--I hate them btw ),The 69 Eyes,Trollheim's Grott,Sentenced,Him,Nightwish,Kalmah,Solgrav,
Deathchain,De Lirium's Order,Darkwoods My Betrothed,Ensiferum,

[IconOfSin]

i heard some stuff from Amoral, from what i've heard they sound pretty good

[Nocturna]

Hello everybody!
I think that Swallow The Sun and Insomnium are the best,so called underground,metal bands at this moment in Finland!
They are really great in live shows too!I was fortunate enought to see them live last spring in Finland!
So i definitely recommend:
Swallow the sun:The Morning Never Came
Insomnium:Since The Day It All Came Down
