Back with more amazing Wintersun
Wintersun is a Finnish heavy metal band from Helsinki originally formed as the side project of Jari Mäenpää, then-vocalist and guitarist of folk metal band Ensiferum.
In 2003, Mäenpää began pulling together songs that he had been working on since 1995. These songs followed specific themes described by Mäenpää as majestic, "spacy", and melodic. While Mäenpää planned to perform and record each instrument for the first album himself, he still required a drummer. He sent demos to Kai Hahto, former member of Rotten Sound, who agreed to perform the drums.
After obtaining a record deal, Mäenpää scheduled studio time to record the first album. Ensiferum's tour to support their 2004 release was scheduled at the same time, which forced Mäenpää to request time off from the band. The band instead fired him, and Mäenpää was free to go ahead with the production of his self-titled album, Wintersun.
After the release of Wintersun, the band found permanent members to perform shows and promote the album, although a keyboardist would never be found. In 2006, Wintersun began work on their second and third albums, Time I and Time II, which were initially intended to be released as a single album. Recording began in May of that year, but the albums would be the recipient of years-long delays for a multitude of reasons, not the least of which was the complexity of each song's mix.
Two of the band's members, drummer Kai Hahto and bassist Jukka Koskinen, are also members of Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish. In November 2023 Teemu Mäntysaari became a full member of American thrash metal band Megadeth, having filled-in on their most recent tour.

There are few bands who can play music as complex as this flawlessly live. Wintersun is one of them.
I never thought I could get SO emotional listening to metal music until I discovered Wintersun a good couple of years ago. Jari's Ensiferum days were amazing, amazing songs, but WIntersun takes it to another level, it's so technical but so melodic and beautiful and epic
Wintersun's long-delayed “Time II” album will be released late summer or early fall of 2024 via Nuclear Blast.
If there is anything as grand as the track 'Time' from album Time l...
Good music is filled with depth and intellect and
I'm dying to hear how you'd react to soul pearcing
POETS OF THE FALL -
"Angel" (Alexander Theatre Sessions)
It is too perfect to disregard!☀️
I love how a lot of European metal band members often have side projects with artists from other bands. It's one big community of talented musicians and vocalists. No competition, just love. I understand what you mean with fast and calm at the same time. Wintersun is magical!
You absolutely need another listen to this. First time I listened this, this was a complite mess in my mind. But since I gave them another chance, OU MY GOD! Everytime!!! The talent. The skill. The ”orcestration”.
And Teemu is playing whit Megadeth now… so.
Wintersun is the only band i've seen perform an entire set perfectly live. And I've seen Symphony X and Nightwish.
I was never into growling until the Nightwish Army introduced me to Wintersun and Devin Townsend, 🤘🤘
Floor Jansen does that too, haven't you heard the song yours is an empty hope?
You should listen to Amorphis - Among Stars 🔥
Dude you are so many years behind of this reaction :-D haha but stil, congratulation to reaction to this. From now on you have a world of heavy magic to explore!!!
Masterpiece 😈
Great reaction my man!
You should try reacting to one of those earlier Ensiferum songs with Jari. I would recommend:
Token of Time
WindRider
Lai Lai Hei
Battlesong
Cheers!
Two more songs to react:
Wintersun - Land Of Snow And Sorrow (TIME I Live Rehearsals At Sonic Pump Studios) REMASTER ( ruclips.net/video/gEBFn8tkdFA/видео.html )
Wintersun - Loneliness (Winter) Official Lyric Video ( ruclips.net/video/qIiZFpOQnd8/видео.html )
Your videos always sound very good and they are also nice to watch. I like your style of being in front of camera.
😍👋🇫🇮
Wintersun is really flying under the radar pretty much everywhere. From what I gather, they’re really good live too. Not quite as consistent as Nightwish but on a given day. However, they don’t have any good quality live recordings that I can find. I guess they don’t have quite the budget Nightwish does. There’s an “ultimate version” of “Way of the fire” live which is good enough for a reaction but the audio is still far off from these studio recordings. Now, I’d love to see you react to another criminally underrated Finnish band, Von Herzen Brothers. Try this for starters ruclips.net/video/XYI8mQM4hHg/видео.htmlsi=fFRCU2nC25BLylkF They’re a bit more traditional rock leaning towards Prog and post grunge.
No wonder Kai Hahto and Jukka Koskinen (bass) were considered good enough to join Nightwish. LOL By the way I prefer this to Time. There are live performances on RUclips but amazingly, although Jari plays guitar so well, he was only singing in the live performance that I saw.
And now Teemu also a member of Megadeth
🤘🏻🙏🏻🇫🇮❄️✨❤️
