[icee562]

@AIZEN1401 FUCKING HILARIOUS 

[icee562]

The album is 100% finished. The only thing left is mixing it along with the orchestrations and backing tracks. Jari has stated in various recent interviews that the album is almost insured to be released before summer, in other wise sometime in April. So grab your balls cause Time's epicness is the reason the worlds going to end this year!!! Oh and PLEASE BUY THE ALBUM!!

[xXxKINGLUIxXx]

song fits perfect to the weather here!!!

[Azerifin]

I LOVE FINLAND!!! THIS COUNTRY REALLY MAKES BEST METAL AND ROCK! ( sorry, SWEDEN too)

[Fuckdisworld93]

@Azerifin don't forget norway too

[Azerifin]

@Fuckdisworld93

you're damn right )

[KabelMetalMedia]

no other bands can play any better than Wintersun! hail from indonesia! \m/

[finnpokko]

someone learn me how to drum.

[jakubcernovsky]

who fell-in-love with Jari and his voice same as me?

[MrMochaFrappuccino]

I've really stopped listening to most metal, jazz is where it's at. But after all this time, Wintersun is still magical!

[finnpokko]

@MrMochaFrappuccino from this to jazz? i cant feel you bro.. your lost

[laumaelinful]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAAHA I CANT STOP LAUGHING XDDDDDDDD WTFF IS THISS

[TheElderScrollsGER]

@laumaelinful this is art

[CrystalGlace]

@laumaelinful True music, kiddo.

[MrAwesomeGuitarMan]

@laumaelinful something you will never uderstand, go back to the other beliebers and keep metal for what it is...

[MandragoraGaming]

@laumaelinful What is this?Ask our mom,she likes this song when she gets raped from a gang of metalheads.

[Vaagur]

@MandragoraGaming Oh the fail... Your mom get raped by metalheads? Sorry for you. :(

[sivuvoltti]

@Vaagur lol

[Metalmack95]

@MandragoraGaming Metalheads shall nor rape. We have to much brain and emotions for that.

[vinnolas]

this is so fucking epic

[ImYourDeity]

For every new metal band I watch, I cross my fingers and chant "Please, no growls, no growls, no growls" and then they go GRWAAA!

Too bad, good guitar. *next band*

[Alejop1995]

@ImYourDeity sometimes i feel the same, but most if the time i wish growling

[Queklain666]

@ImYourDeity then go to your crappy bands, and ignore this great band :) your loss

[aelfcynn]

@ImYourDeity: I used to think that too. Now I totally love the growls and rasps! It grows on you, honest ;)

[ImYourDeity]

@aelfcynn I'm the opposite. Back in the day I loved bands like slipknot with their growling, but that was because I didn't know there was good metal without it.

[musicmonkeyboard]

@ImYourDeity I cross my fingers and think: "Please dont mess up the song".

The song should fit the music, that is my only demand.

[kah13176]

@ImYourDeity If you want clean lyrics, check out Power Metal bands. Sample "Ghost Light" by Pyramaze, "The Chosen Ones" by Dream Evil, "Valhalla" by Blind Guardian, anything by DragonForce, etc.

I'm sure I'm going to get shit for this. Not too familiar with power metal.

[givemeajackson]

@kah13176 to put dragonforce into any metal context is sacrilegious. they are studiocomputerprogrammetal...

[kah13176]

@givemeajackson I don't really care either way. When it comes to metal, I listen almost exclusively to melodic death metal. At the Gates, Dark Tranquillity, Wintersun, Kalmah, In Flames, Amon Amarth, The Black Dahlia Murder, etc are where it's at.

[givemeajackson]

@kah13176 i listen to almost everything that hasnt got core in the name, so melodeath, brutal death, techdeath, death metal, thrash metal, black metal, heavy metal, nwobhm, progeressive (a lot of prog at the moment) and neoclassical.

[AcXr50]

2012 For the Mayans was actually when The new album drops.

[TerryFGM]

wow that is singer is ugly as fuck

[Alejop1995]

@TerryFGM read my mind mister

[sdfdogjedi100]

@TerryFGM lol

[hernan1081]

the vocalist remember me to bullet for my ballentine vocalist

[xXMusicxMadnessXx]

@hernan1081 Jari Maenpaa --> Matt Tuck? I'm not sure...

[hernan1081]

@xXMusicxMadnessXx men see his nose

[xXMusicxMadnessXx]

@hernan1081 They look fuck all like each other, but it's not really worth our time squabbling over pointless things like this so back to the music

[kakha1974]

My favorite thing ever in metalmusic.

[amazingaustin13]

i listen to this song ten times a day because it is so fucking epic

[amazingaustin13]

Jari Maenpaa is one of the best songwriters ever \m/

[mcroper]

@XanaX93 alternatively you could just not click either

[XanaX93]

@mcroper Indeed and that's my way of doing. I've never clicked the 'dislike' button on YouTube. Though I've clicked 'like' a few times during 2007 - 2011. It's just the best way to watch and listen without thinking "would I like or dislike..."

[meloanaxx]

Is he playing folk metal with a fender telecaster ?

[CoreyL11]

ew

[XanaX93]

Remember this thing: the reason why people click the dislike button isn't always because they don't like the song. Music video can be something they don't like for exp. I like Turisas' song Stand up and Fight but the music video doesn't please me. And if a video that has lyrics in it or anything is made badly I click the dislike button. I click 'like' only if the song and the video are both good!

[7h3tSLDR02]

@XanaX93 Or you could not be a dick and just exit out of the video instead of disliking it

[XanaX93]

@7h3tSLDR02 and if I didn't like the music video what's the problem with that? I have the right to say my opinion about everything associated with videos and music. It's stupid and childish to get insulted because of that.

[wolfpain222]

Jari was going to realease time but then he took an arrow in the knee

[givemeajackson]

@wolfpain222 who the fuck is jan?

[wolfpain222]

@givemeajackson I didn't say jan but jari! :]

[givemeajackson]

@wolfpain222 how did you edit your comment? i swear it sad jan when i replied! O_o?

[wolfpain222]

@givemeajackson No edit mate! :P I said jari! ;) Maybe because "r" and "i" can be easily confused with "n" while read fast... ;)



[givemeajackson]

@wolfpain222 huh. well i was tired as fuck that day...

[wolfpain222]

@givemeajackson and that's how you can easily confuse letters... I can understand the way you think... you see i always get confused by the letters "r" and "i" when they're together and i think that's probably an "n"! :D

[maethris]

this song is just too short.

[LMTR14]

@maethris buy the album

[maethris]

@LMTR14 makes the song not longer :P

[amazingaustin13]

@maethris good things usually don't last long, unfortunatlly

[maethris]

@amazingaustin13 so true, dude^^

[Cameronlikesramen]

Telecaster..?

[Fluffypopcicle]

@Cameronlikesramen

It's used deceptively a lot in metal. John 5, Jim Root, Ross Ott, the Deftones dudes use Tele-ish guitars, and James Hetfield occasionally has used a Tele. Teles can get some damn heavy sounds.

[givemeajackson]

@Cameronlikesramen tokai telecaster to be precise!

[MrAwesomeGuitarMan]

hmm weird, this vid only shows my own views

[cilibinarii]

@MrAwesomeGuitarMan hmm weird, your comment seems to be all over youtube by all kinds of different people, i wonder what the word "unoriginal" means

[TheBBgay]

if I had to describe this song with one word it would probably be "very good"

[frindle8]

I remember when this video had ike 470,000 views. Well I am going to spend my sunday starting a new career in Jak and Daxter : the precursor legacy (for the 50th time), listen to Wintersun and In Flames, and eat chicken noodle soup. Fuck yes.

[daddisulta]

@frindle8 lol'd so hard, we seem to be extremely alike XD

[alexsd1234]

First time I've heard this band. I like the instrumentals a lot, not too crazy about the singing. It scared me when he started talking in the beginning, lol. Good stuff. Anyone know of an instrumental only version of their songs?

[MrAwesomeGuitarMan]

@alexsd1234 U MAD BRO?!

[KialraOfDeath]

You can't take the vocals? Jari is the king of vocals, I'm not surprised.

[BloodMaster104]

Jari, come back to Arthemesia :'-)

[videogamerselite270]

Sorry for this dislike comment, but really? 354? This is fucking Wintersun we're talking about......

[snateraar]

It's like Ensiferum.. Bit more awesome though. Love that voice.

[tasfa10]

Wintersun's every troll's best friend! If you're ever trolling on another band's video trying to prove its shit you only have to remind people that wintersun exists and you've proven your right!!

[bodomy1]

those guys are are amazing \m/

[IDIDNTORDERANYSOUP]

Jari Maenpaa = Skwisgaar Swigelf

[1994mrkac]

@IDIDNTORDERANYSOUP Alexi Laiho is skwisgaar.........type in google ,,dethklok band members images'' and you will see

[TheSwagganator]

"Time" was set to be the soundtrack to Half-Life Episode 3, so that's why it hasn't come out yet.

[wwersfrugooscape]

@TheSwagganator Where did you hear that =O?

[TheMadziara11]

Zaaaaajebistyyy kawalek!!!!

[mrsconder02]

Kick ass song.. but dude needs a nostril reduction. lol

[ShadowtigerNeverDies]

FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO KNOW UNDERRATED MELODEATH:

Deviant Syndrome - Entire Cosmic Elements

In Twilight's Embrace - The Source

Hateskor - Mirror's Eye

Riverain - The Dream

Uncreation - My Game

If you're interested in more, just ask :)

[moni8888peace]

spectacular !!!!!!

[Sagittarel]

actually about all the vikings, there was no vikings here in Finland but we had pagan people living like barbarians. (not sailing all over Europe and robbing but we had a farmer who murdered a bishop with an axe though! )

So its a bit wrong to call Wintersun vikings as they are Finnish. Call them pagan gods!

[LordOfVeil]

@Sagittarel There were vikings in Finland. Jari is southern Finnish, racially progressive towards nordidness, and Jari's Ensiferum had clear references towards vikings and similar Northern-to-pan-European settings and sentiments. It's only fitting to call him viking, if people are ready to view him as such.

[MANOFJESUS777]

It's been over half a decade since a release..but like this if you're still listening in November, 2011 XD

[WildDragonBlaze]

@MiracleMillennia cool story bro

[Twwistad]

I noticed that every band that makes a song or an album that has something to do with winter, or being cold, or frozen, or icy, or snow, It's actually realy really good. Something about that coldness just sparks some magic into the melody.

[Bierchen1337]

@00MetalViking Yep. That post was meant to be ironic... ;-)

[00MetalViking]

always makes me damn proud of my viking heritage hearing bands like this \m/ ....keep it metal

[Bierchen1337]

Wintersun... Wait! There is no sun in Finland during winter!

[00MetalViking]

@Bierchen1337 its the full moon on the fresh driven snow ........get it?

[Axcersia]

1:10 - Man in the moon. I KNEW HE EXISTED. Playing his heavy metal and stuff.

[AIZEN1401]

The human beings we sleep with pajamas of superman, superman sleeps with pajamas of chuck norris, chuck norris sleeps with pajamas of jari maenpaa

[sgtenders]

2:06 fucking epic.

[MetalAge19]

@markh2k11 Kid, noone gives a fuck about your immaturity and stupidity, get a life and grow up, this band is awesome, i shouldn`t have spent 10 seconds for this comment either but just want you to know how pathetic you are...

[Rempejgus]

Do they doing new albums or they just make one album then stop?

[SonOfTheNorthe]

@Rempejgus Another album is being made, but it's taking forever because of various technical difficulties and outdated and broken equipment.You can read everything about it on wikipedia.

[Oniichan96]

The only thing i hate about this video is the ending

[MegistosZeysII]

2nd most voted comment=REATRDED!!!

[KalleBlomquist93]

1:35 is the shit!

[Svartsjel1]

people should check out astral winter

while waiting for time

[rakkipallo]

imagine Wintersun in talent or idols show..after that they propably cancel whole fucking wannabeetalent show`s because they see what actual talent is...GO METAL!

[KalleBlomquist93]

@rakkipallo

well if s0omebody is good at beatboxing dubstep, thats also a talent.

why does everybody hate to get loved? why are we so fucked man?

am i high?

[rakkipallo]

@KalleBlomquist93 dude, you are just high:) and wintersun rules btw

[Hemull]

If I'd get a cent every time I have listened to this song.... I would be rich!

[guitargod909]

Am I the only one who thinks the guy playing guitar in the intro is acting a bit dramatic?

[frindle8]

@guitargod909 THAT GUY is JARI! And not at all. He holds the matter that is all things winter and solar inside him.

[stuhlgang1313]

I did know that Rafael Nadal is finnish and playing bass guitar...

[ErdelyMindorokke]

My friends asked me, why I love so much Finland. I showed him this video. It was enough for him, to understand.

[stevocro]

If JB was Finnish i wouldn't give a fuck

[Sagittarel]

Best music video ever made. And btw only those insane sweeps at intro alone have more to offer than whole CoB discography. =P

[andrewkeen24]

@Sagittarel Lol i'm long over metal but you tell them. Jari fucks up anyone else in the genre, horribly.

[PoderMaligno]

Why the most stupid comment is the most voted?

[Roffe192]

@PoderMaligno Because we are surrounded by idiots.

[sa9s9r38ufmfm]

@PoderMaligno Lol, you complain about top comments... now you're comment is the top comment... I'm now complaining about your top comment w/ yet another stupid comment... so... ehh, am I top comment yet?

[PoderMaligno]

@sa9s9r38ufmfm

Yep, they troll me.

Well at least i don't have the two top comments

[stevocro]

@PoderMaligno ironic ;)

[HerveGamerDude]

this song doesnt get old

[HerveGamerDude]

351 people were frozen by winter then blinded by the sun

[RussScrumandRuck]

I bought The Wintersun Album and I so want them ti finish their Time album!!

[adrian321a]

its a bad idea to listen and head bang to this song with a head ache

[ChapelofDeath1]

@hackforloser thats the name of my ipod. :D

[1994Alive]

Suggestion: Tiesto - In The Dark

Is youtube trying to be ironic or something?

[tammy61711]

there all hot lol bad ass music video n love the song

[Sagittarel]

Wintersun should do more music videos because they would be so awesome. Perhaps they make music for one of the new songs?

[astriatheman]

@Sagittarel Yeah well you see son theres a massive problem with winter.....Jari's computer stuffed which delayed the new album time for almost 8 years...I mean every wintersun fan is very patient

[SweetPandem0nium666]

omg!!! this sounds sooo crazyyy, I love it!!!

[lounon]

Lots of hair here :D xD

[clockwerkkilla420]

This ban is so Epic. This actually has a relatively positive message, and the guitar work is incredible. I get tired of Metal that has the same constant underlying theme about suffering and hate, especially Death-core. Some of the best bands come from Finland: Fact.

[suugakublues]

@clockwerkkilla420 There are some bands (generally in black metal) that have more depressing themes but they display it and showcase it better than deathcore bands who just sound like kid who got picked on in high school in the middle of a major freakout.

[PhranklynGreen]

so...is the lead singer playing a telecaster???

[Rakaloe]

DUDE! my friend advised me this music, ITS AWESOME!!!!

[Sagittarel]

@Rakaloe Your friend rules, offer a beer for him because of his mighty intel. I'm trying to do exactly the same thing as your friend. I try to promote Wintersun for everyone but no one is listening =(

[Rakaloe]

@Sagittarel lol, my friend is actually a she... but shes like the silent type, but amazing with a pencil.. shes intrested in most stuff i am 2!  nobody really knows her... but shes actually really cool! so i think the message is not to judge anyone by their looks!

[krakistophales]

349 people swear their allegiances to summermoon.

[thecorpse70]

349 dislikes wtf how can any dislike this fucking masterpiece?

[anaha100]

Seriously i'd vote this intro THE BEST FUCKING INTRO IN THE WORLD, who's with me!?!?

[ChapelofDeath1]

@anaha100 a lot of people. a WHOLE lot.

[dru83]

I cant fucking find 02SHADOWS22's comment anywhere goddammit!

[andrewizz]

It's pretty fun to see how almost everybody who listens to Wintersun says that it's their favourite band.

[Sagittarel]

@andrewizz Thats because after you get into this awesome band there is no way out. Exactly same thing happened to me. Only a few bands remind me like this. Black metal bands Emperor and Sacramentum are bit like that to me but not in the same big scale as Wintersun. Jari, Kai, Teemu and Jukka kick ass.

[andrewizz]

@Sagittarel So true.

[andrewkeen24]

@Sagittarel Well i've heard alot of metal over the years. Many different types as well. Wintersun and Ensiferum are the only good metal bands i've ever heard. Obviously Jari is one of the most talented guys in metal.

[ChapelofDeath1]

@ChapelofDeath1 well hes fucking jari. he can do anything

[fuckslipknot21]

really, i prefer the 240p version!!!

[rakkipallo]

this is just beautiful enough to make grown man cry...snif

[Cobhc951]

I JUST BOUGHT THE WINTERSUN ALBUM!!!

Everybody should buy it so we can help Jari to release this fucking Time album, thumbs up if you think I'm right!

[DreadedLeopard]

@Cobhc951

I bought the disc a few days. yes everyone fucking buy the Wintersun Album no exceptions!!!!!!!!!

[Lithemasterofmetal]

O.O first time i listen to this band, and HOLY SHIT! :D I LOVE IT! \m/ FINNISH METAL MUSIC FOREVER! \m/

[Dzschelebo]

Sigh @ Wintersun. I give up on Jari.
