[Blodsmert]

Ensiferum

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Oh, fuck yeah. Swallow The Sun rules.

 

[Jean-Pierre]

Stone and Demilich. And Beherit, I guess...I just don't take them too seriously.

I've been conditioned to know that anything that comes out of Finland labeled "power metal" is gayer than Boy George.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Celesty are pretty awesome Finnish power metal with actual riffs, and they're pretty epic.

 

[Domoritus]

Ensiferum
Satanic Warmaster
Beherit
Nightwish
Finntroll
Impaled Nazarene
Moonsorrow

 

[Jean-Pierre]

Celesty are pretty awesome Finnish power metal with actual riffs, and they're pretty epic.

I'll check em out.

EDIT: Or maybe I'll pass. I'm already seeing comparisons to Sonata Fagtica and Stratovarius...

EDIT 2: I just listened to their debut album. It sounds like an oral orgy between Sonata Arctica and Timo Tolki. This fails.

 

[Arrakis]

Kalmah
Insomnium
Moonsorrow
Finntroll
