I love Wintersun, but all the expectations and whining about when the album will be released is starting to annoy the shit out of me. I almost hope it will suck badly because of that.

Well the question isnt that stupid considering the fact, that unreleased albums cannot be "added into collection" in normal way...
maybe through the multiple additions form it is possible but i would consider that a glitch...
edit: yes, it is it, i tried it...using this page - http://www.metalstorm.ee/users/collection_edit.php?add_albums=1 - allows users to add even unreleased albums

I don't know if this album's gonna be good, but it will be one of the most controversial of the next year, I'll listen it for sure, since I've being waiting for it for a very long time.

Look, I think, that, the release date is somewhere in April 2010, Kai said that.. but I have a bad feeling about 2012 ... Ok that's a joke, I really hope, that, that's a true:
jappie
Kai said in an interview that they would try to get the record out by the end of the year, that interview was done in june.
Now it ain't released yet, but Jari also said that he had 3 months delay due to renovations at his appartment.
==> end of the year + 3 months = march/april

If you are going to say that Wintersun is medicore say that you THINK they are mediocre. The band obviously is extremely good judging by all the fans, it's just a matter of taste. Those who like Wintersun are typically those who have listened to and exhausted multiple genres. Their taste is not immature it is quite the opposite. I personally can't stand black metal for the most part, for example Emperor. But I can understand how someone would like them and I am glad. While not liking Emperor, I would still rate their best albums 9/10 or whatever because it is awesome black metal. You cannot deny this for the most part.
For those who love extreme power metal, Wintersun is a simply amazing. I love Wintersun, Jari gave me a reason to live. Wintersun is NOT mainstream, for those who like the genre combination, its absolutely perfect.
Upon first listening to Wintersun, I thought it to be average, but then I really listened and I loved it.
You may have your opinions about me and the kind of music I like, but look, I have heard and listented to a lot of music in my life. It's what I do, I'm sure you do too, but how is it that one band can, in my mind, dominate all other music ever heard in my life?
I think to say the band is medicore is a poor mistake on anyone's part.
About Time's release date, I simply don't care. Caring and worrying about it makes it worse. We already have the album we love, all this anticipation will make us dissapointed regardless of how good the album is simply because we are longing for something unknown, and we base our expectations off the original album. The new album will not be the self titled album, it has to be different.

I don't want to offend you or anything, but I was wondering how someone who is a staff member on this wonderful site (that I just joined) and post reviews that I agree with most of the time (there's still a few notable Exceptions) could post such a close minded comment? I mean, you have the right to like, love, hate, dislike or to be indifferent to an album or a band, but be at least a little more objective!
In my opinion, you can't say:'This is a pile of overrated mediocrity' and not give reasons why you said so. The same goes for you review of Ex Deo's first album where you destroyed it while not giving any valuable reason for writing such an harsh note to it. Wintersun's debut album was a good album while it is far from deserving a perfect note to me, but I would never label Jari Maenpää's work as mediocre since it's an obvious fact that he is a pretty good musician.
There is no reason to believe the second album will not be better than the first even if it's release has been delayed. There is no reason to believe that it could not be a bad album either...Just be patient and wait til' it is released, then we'll be able to judge. There's plenty of good bands you can listen to while your waiting for it! Please, stop being overly negative and/or impatient.

Welcome to the site, I am glad you enjoy it and most of my reviews.
My post was not supposed to be a fully descriptive review of the Wintersun album. I posted my opinion, that's all, and like I say - if the second album is like the first, I'm not going to like it much. I'm not predicting it will be, just saying if it is...
Talented musician? Yes. Good band? They're ok. Overrated? Yes. This is just my opinion - I have mine, you have yours, we're both happy.
Of course I'll listen to the new album with an open mind. I'll have it from the label before any of you, so I will have a good chance to make my mind up before it comes out and I write a review for it. (Assuming it is actually released...)

Also, this is aimed at Wes. By posting what I thought - by default that makes it my subjective opinion, surely? What else can I have but my own subjective opinion? I can't speak for the people who like the album, and I am not trying to. I simply posted my own opinion - forums would be a little dull if everyone thought the same, right?

Wintersun is very overrated. It always feels like melodic death for the masses to me. People should try out bands like Insomnium, Kalmah and Be'lakor...

I really hope this turns out to be a huge disappointment. Nothing would make me happier than watching all the irrational Wintersun fanboys get their balloon popped.

There's going to be 624 people on this site completely distraught whether or not this is even released. I'll be distraught if this wins any other MS award than "biggest letdown". Their debut was irritating, just simple melodic death metal with tedious keyboards and hints of folk metal, I expect this will be in the same vein. Wintersun are to Britney Spears as Britney Spears is to Britney Spears.

I don't think Wintersun is mediocre but it's extremely overrated.
And I agree with Doc Godin: lots of Wintersun fans act like irrational fanboys.

There's something extremely irritating about a lot of Finnish bands; their fans! I've seen this with Wintersun, CoB, Ensiferum and more... very immature fanboy acts (I'm not claiming everyone is, I'm just stating my observation)
I'm with you guys on the overrated bit, definitely. Just listened to it again, might just lower my rating some more...
