Any news of when this will be picked up on iTunes? In USA it is hard for me to get this album and I don't want to pay $35 dollars to import it from Amazon...

Yet another great record from Equilibrium, but sadly I agree that it sounds like they tried to recreate Sagas. I gave Sagas a 10, but I cannot give this more than 8.

Wow, i thought that that sagas was epic...

i dont think it sounds as sagas. and even if it would then you know how equilibrium sounds. it would be weird if they suddenly sounded like ensiferum...

this is the first equilibrium album that i liked from the beginning, i had to listen to TF and Sagas a while before i started to like them

Now! on the new album i've listened to it several times online and love it! To be honest I wasn't a huge fan of the old vocalist Helge.. But the new vocals by Rene I love! little more gruff to them and i can here a little more pronunciation in there! hehe and musically it's great! love the happy feel through the whole album and the acoustic songs are a great bonus too!! I gave it a 10! there really is not one song on here I don't like!

I love the track Fahrtwind... I am relieved to know that this band is still passing for good. When everyone gets wind of this breaking album they will be flatulanced.

Fart Wind lol (yeah I'm retarded)

Fahrtwind is so god damn catchy but thats why its so good

Yeah this sucks I've been waiting for this album for so long and I can't find it anywhere 2 weeks after its release... Infuriating!!! They don't even seem to have heard of it at HMW, MusicWorld or any other big music store, even though they sell Sagas and (more rarely) Turis Fratyr. I think I'll move to Europe just to have an easier access to Euro metal.

iTunes Store still hasn't it 20 FUCKING DAYS AFTER ITS RELEASE!!! I bought the cd on ebay, dammit... Nuclear Blast fucked up the north american marketing, I hope the band won't lose too much because of that.

I fuckin love this alum....its less authentic than Turis....but much more epic!!

More EXTREME than Sagas, but has less variety. No song really stands out for me, but the new vocalist is much less annoying than Stang. The only thing that I found all that was the bonus disc, which kind of made me wish they did the whole album acoustically.

"Ewige Sieg" and "Wasserman" appears to be great after first hearing...rest i dont know yet...but i somehow feel this album is unnecessarily long and therefore a bit empty and boring...

but maybe giving it more time will change my opinion...

Well i dont really like the acoustic songs. they could have done them much better but instead of using normal chords they use power chords so they become more folk rock than folk...

Finally got it and well, it's a good album. Not a wonderful one, but good. Some melodies are obviously borrowed from their other albums, as well as other bands, so it's not their most original album so far, though some alements are new. On the whole, a perfectly executed copycat...

Robert Dahn : Helge Stang = Anette Olzon : Tarja Turunen

Only Stang!!!!!!!

For a while I thought this album was inferior to both the other albums but now I think it's just as good. The songs "Der Wassermann", "Wenn Erdreich Bricht" and "Kurzes Epos" are rather amazing. Only thing I'm not keen on are the female vocals but they don't last long so it's not so bad.

Boring.

Repetitive and boring.

Sagas was beyond quality and inspiration, but this album it's a uninspired
regression. It's a pity.

This band is like a mediocre Ensiferum tribute band, which immediately decides to write own songs. (sorry, but I hear nothing unique and new in their songs...)

I agree a bit with tricky, but still is a good album.

Well the style in general is the same as Ensiferum, but the way of song-building and performing them is waay different from them imo...

Yeah!!nothing special except sandra is cuter than before!!

Think this is really cool, good album

I'd personally take these guys over Ensiferum any day!

No no it's not like Ensiferum ! It's different, and i think it's better than Ensiferum because the Ensiferum's songs are identical

the Ensiferum's songs are identical

well..Equilibrium's are as well tbh

The acoustic versions are pretty awesome

Not Sagas nor TF, but still good at what they do.
