Thank's .This is also one my favorite band alongside Nightwish. I recommend listening to "Time" for the same rehearsals and definitely Jari's sensitive interpretation of the song "Loneliness".

Great job with reactions, I like your approach on analysis and infos. For some awesome clean and growls, how about some Amorphis reactions soon? Greetings from Finland o/

My god! I thought you couldn't get any better when you said they remind you of Týr!! Yes! It's like a symphonic, folk, death, viking inspired metal. Hella props for you knowing them! I'm fairly sure, if I remember correctly, the vocalist for Týr, along with other folk metal/Scandinavian bands' vocalists, sang the main, epic chorus finale for this song. :)

Nice reaction! Would love to see you react to their song "Time" from the same studio rehearsal!

The bass player was also in a band called Norther (great band), which had guitarist/singer of Ensiferum (great band). Then the drummer is also in Nightwish so finnish metal musicians really are versatile

Teemu is playing a custom Ibanez.

6:20 Greatest tempo change ever executed.

Jari, the singer used to be in Ensiferum (one of the "folk metal big 5") and the singer of Týr is part of the choir he usualy has on Wintersun's albums, along with a bunch of other folk metal singers. As for the guitars, the solos on Wintersun's first album are insane, at the very least equal to Bodom. The guy who plays the green guitar, Teemu, also was in a band called "Imperanon" which only released one album before breaking up, but the guitars on that also give early Bodom a run for their money

Nice vid ! Please react to "winter Madness" from WinterSun there is a crazy guitar solo in it !!

I don't say an album is perfect very often but from top to bottom the first Wintersun album is perfect. I'd like to see an Arsis or Necrophagist reaction.

Kai Hahto was the drummer to Wintersun first but for sure he is a beast no matter where he plays.

The guitar player with the green guitar is using an Axe Fx, basically he can sound whatever ways he wants to, so to say acoustic without a real piezo but simulating it.

Both play Ibanez, these guys are masters of the craft. Jari (singer) also does the background keyboard work. Teemu (other guitar player) uses customized Ibanez

the vocal is a talented musician. he is the song writer and their songs are massive Wintersun is one of the music deities

The blue custom (drop-C) has an RGA body with custom scoops on both sides. The neck is based on my 1987 Ibanez Jem LNG and is slightly rounder and thicker than most Jem necks. The pickups are an open calibrated set of Bare Knuckle Black Hawks with ceramic magnets and the guitar is also equipped with a piezo system (Ibanez Double Edge-Pro bridge) for more realistic acoustic guitar emulation.

People are arguing in Finland which guitarist is better Alexi Laiho from Bodom or Jari Mäenpää from Wintersun. I myself like Jari better... It could be cause Wintersun is more versatile than Bodom.

Check out Wintersun's first album 😉

Its a custom ibanez the greenish blue guitar lead aka teemu. and man time 1 has some good solos same with death and the healing and winter madness. Kai also is now a permant member of nightwish b/c the other drummer has severe insomia so he replaced him so he can recover, and little tibbit on kai he was also in swallow the sun, rotting sound. So he have fast pace and slow speeds underhis belt. And if you do listen to the forest that weeps its one of the most involved song i ever seen for vocal wise i ment.

No, it's Nightwish got drummer from Wintersun, to bo correct ;)

here the answer by teemu himself www.metalsucks.net/2013/07/30/rigged-wintersun/

Master Level Epic Folk Metal. So gooood.

If you are a fan of black metal and like lead heavy stuff (which I think most of us guitarists do) I'd recommend checking out Windir. They have quite a few songs with great leads all throughout (kinda one of the unique things they were known for). Fagning or Resurrection of the Wild are two good ones.

If you like that you have to have to have to listen to ne obliviscaris and plague flowers the kaleidoskope!! 🤘

You should check Children of Bodoms cover of Billy Idols old classic Rebel Yell. He actually kinda sings too

Hi there, if you enjoy this kind of stuff, you really should check out Atavistia. Their style is very similar to Wintersun's and they have just realeased a new album. I think especially "Through the hollow raven's eyes" is really worth reacting to.

I think all Teemu's guitars are Ibanez customized to his taste by Estonian luthier Kaur Kukkur Woodwork Studio. For example, see facebook.com/teemuwintersun/photos/a.1351624378281730/1444925462284954/?type=1&theater I think Jari is using similarly customized guitars.
