oh my, that cracked me up!
1) i don't hate Korpi, i've seen them like 3 or 4 times (every time because of Týr

) and left the hall every time, too. They're just boring to me. But have to confess i've never heard their studio records.
I used to like Eluveitie a lot 3-4 years ago, when they were less popular and more metal. Now i don't care much.
Equilibrium is even more boring than Korpiklaani.
2) Agreed that Eric The Red is Týr's best record. It's just brilliant (if you take away Rainbow Warrior)! However, i really like Ragnarok too, Land is ok, but i'm one of the very few fans who really hate their 2009 release, By the Light of the Northern Star.

3) Alestorm suck. Mostly because they don't even take themselves seriously. Swachbuckle i'm not familiar with.
so see for yourself: you're not the only one
