Wintersun breaks up

[Alteredmindeath]

So I heard Wintersun broke up. Did anyone hear about this?

 

[hauta]

IDK.. I checked their website now and found nothing. Where did you heard this?

I wouldn't be surprised. No record label would support a band that has been as inactive as Wintersun in 8 years.
I think Jari was too ambitious with his compositions by trying to use resources that were out of his budget and requesting so much of Nuclear Blast when his band was not making sufficient revenues for them to provide Wintersun with an adequate advance.

Their forum is also down.

On a finnish newspaper today Kai Hahto told that the new album will be out by the end of summer.

You 'heard'?

Kai said they had a meeting with Nuclear Blast today or so and the album should be out this year

Wintersun can't really break up, it's Jari... the other guys do their own stuff, Kai is in Swallow the Sun, Jukka in Norther. Why would Jari give up now haha.

 

[Alteredmindeath]

Good to hear, thanks for the update.

Why would Jari give up now haha.

They should change the title to Death

They should change the title to Death

I think they should change the title to Eternity. Anyone?

"Death" and "Eternity" are definitely interesting and original terms that haven't already been used a trillion times in metal.

 

[Leandro]

And because Wintersun as a band is completely interesting, original and does not do music that's been done before with much more skill and talent.

Clearly you don't get the joke. I forgive you.

I still love wintersun, even if I've given up hope of time ever coming out.
