And that would be The Way of the Fire.

These kinda music composers born about 1-2 in a generation, yet here in finland we have also tuomas holopainen from nightwish!! And we cant forget alexi "wildchild" laiho from c.o.b. also..(may god bless his soul) r.i.p.!! And quite a few more...you know theres something magical to be a born in northern scandinavia... northern lights ,nightless nights and neverending darkness on a long and cold winter days...these are just a few things that you can feed your creativity and turn in to a melodical masterpiece's of heavy metal music genre...norway ,sweden, finland. Several decent heavy metal bands found from around north pole, excluded section of a world's shopping and living center's

no matter that summer is coming soon and it's already warm, this song will always make me feel cold inside

Listening to this in mid January, a perfect time for band called wintersun. Of course any time is Fantastic to listen

Winter is coming to Sweden and Finland, and it's time to play this album a million times once again.

I've heard it 1000 times 🤘🤘🤘🤘

This is my favorite song of wintersun, it's just... it's so... aaaahhAAAAAAAA sorry I can't put into words the feelings I have towards this song, I love it too much! Thank you so much Jari

I was twelve years old when this album came out… since then i’ve been a metal head. this was such a heavy album for the time. so technical and melodic. I‘ll always come back to listen to this banger

Easily my favorite guitar riff ever. Not something I say lightly. I mean it. Fucking ever.

Aptly named, this song is my new alarm. I'm always 7 minutes late

What a song, what a mix, what an album, what an artist, blessed to hear this

Absolutelly insane dude!!! awesome

Definetly one of the songs we should send out to deep space next time we are in for that

I think this album is their magnum opus. I don't really dig their newer records, but this is absolutely beautiful and dark.

one of the most epic metal songs ever written.

" 'cause days of emptiness are piercing through me like arrows. I feel nothing, but hate and love. So much fire inside, so much left undone." Those lines really hit different during these corona times. 2 years now

Battle against Seasonal Affective Disorder...just 3 months or so, the Winter Madness is starting to get to me...just glad I don't live as far north as Finland

I think Jari realised this is his Magnum Opus, too afraid to come up with something that could ever top this. I personally think this is a masterpiece, no skippers on this album. That must be a lot of pressure for him, especially considering how elitist this music genre is. I'd be happy for a proper release of Time 2 or whatever. But I suppose my grandchildren will enjoy it. Either way, Jari, I don't think you owe your fans anything. Well, maybe with the crowdfunding fiasco from a couple of years ago you do. But you know what I mean.

Jari is musical Divine CONSCIOUSNESS genius. Hail ABRAXAS, battle is WON.

i know the lyrics of this album from begining to end , its like ONE song to me , what a fucking masterpiece

JARI BEEN PUTTING IN WORK LATELY UPLOADING

After all these years. an undiminished masterpiece it remains.

This song kicks serious ass. Cyborg Kai on the drums too🤘

I love how this songs grows.

Agree. He made it worse.

Nothing will ever top this album. And jari didn’t mix it. Sucks that he got so obsessed with mixing everything instead of writing and guitar The rage is palpable. Kai is absolutely storming on the drums. Wintersun drums were never this awesome again, absolutely not in the forest seasons, that’s for damn sure. Now it’s just decently programmed Drums whereas these were the best extreme metal drum tracks EVER And these guitar solos are absolutely the best ever. I don’t say this about any other band or album I at least wish “the way of the fire” was released as a single before they split up as that song actually matched the level of these) (it’s not official yet that wintersun is over but clearly jari is done with this) I’m happy I got to live when this was released.
