@DonHacko96 i think it's meant to kinda represent that they've just come back from some epic bloody battle from the field!(probably just finnished burnin' villages and rapin' all the women!!) typical Viking! :-)
@AnalEvisceration88 I agree. I personally call every band that uses traditional instruments or traditional sounds (keyboard) folk metal. Makes it all less complicated and it doesn't judge the content as strictly :D
@94Andreaaa busca la definicion de paganismo ;D pero para que caer en discuciones sin sentido como te digo no me gusta etiquetar la musica se me hace muy de critico de musica..
Actually they are not black metal nor viking metal although they might sound like them as some people have suggested. They are pagan metal because their lyrics have nothing to do with vikings as they tell tales from ancient Finnish beliefs and style of living. Well more about beliefs.
I can only describe their albums as INCREDIBLE. A band with so many powerful songs. Moonsorrow stand out and above other bands in this great genre of metal.
just discoverd this band and downloaded all there albums fuckin lovin it even if i dont understand the lyrics guess ill have to learn finnish(there cover of for whom the bell tolls is just awsume)
for those of you covering this song, it's in C#/Db minor ;-) (throwing it out there because it's a bit confusing finding the lead note and working off of it for this song)
Moonsorrow actually calls themselves "epic heathen metal." Their lyrical themes do not really deal with vikings, but rather Finnish mythology. But either way, Moonsorrow is the best Scansinavian folk metal band.
let's see, you have the most extreme form of metal out there, black metal, combined with 20th century orchestral, the most epic orchestral out there....= most awesome band in the world!!!!
:D...yes but I consider Eluveitie's style of music as viking too, even if they're not Scandinavian...oh, okay, if you want to argue, we can say Celtic, Foll or Pagan...but afterall...what do we care! Let's just enjoy music!
hey man dont start the epic battle ov ensiferum and moonsorrow fans clash ov 2008...they both kick most ass...i love them equally..i own shirts and albums ov each HAILZ
the best group of pagan metal !

It isn't warriors grave, sankari is a hero, but if it was Hero's Grave, the title would be Sankarin hauta. So I think it's generally Heroes grave.
