These guys have been my favourite band for a long time now. I never grow tired of their songs. I don't understand the Finnish language, but in the past, I've written down what I feel their songs are describing to me, then looked up the lyrics and I'm just blown away by how similar the picture is in my head. They really do give off an atmosphere that you can feel. \m/

Just listened to "Verisäkeet" first time in maybe 15 years when I borrowed cd with this album from my schoolmate. Very strong and strange feelings.

Moonsorrow is one of the best bands in existance. Pure epicness, in not overused meaning of this word. Beautiful music.

Maybe everybody waited the new album too greedy? :) If you compare the albums then yes, sound of Jumalten Aika is a bit flat or dismal and especially guitar is clearer in Verisäkeet. I'm not sure if JA wants to be VS2 but it has things in common. Is it really 80s? Well, VS is then for sure more 90s then but is it that harsh? I don't see so much song-to-song connection and it would be naive to assume Moonsorrow would want to do that. Overall hype and shell of these two albums may cross but I don't think they wanted to make a copy even though "going back" is a bad habit nowadays. Suden Tunti can be seen as a filler and I usually skip Mimisbrunn when listening the album but I like very much the atmosphere and story of songs JA, Ruttolehto and IA. I don't mean to disagree with you in either of your points as things you mentioned are done "better" in VS. It's this comparison that should not probably be made.

It's stylistically probably the closest thing they've made to Verisäkeet. You have valid a valid complaint that the sound is somewhat flat in comparison, but it doesn't even come close to ruining the album for me, and a couple of the tracks on JA are just as good as anything Moonsorrow has ever written. So no, it's not as good as Verisäkeet, but it's damn good still.

It sounds a lot better to me than Verisäkeet from a production standpoint. I can't even listen to the CD of Verisäkeet all the way through as it was released; the garbage clipping gives me a headache after about half an hour. The vinyl is more tolerable but most of the time I fall back on a version I made myself with iZotope's declipper. It's dumb that I even need to do that. The guitars may be recorded a bit better on Verisäkeet, but they're at least not buried under a layer of clipping distortion on Jumalten aika. People have complained about the drum sound but, again, since it's not muffled as hell from clipping, it's the best drum sound for me on any of their albums since at least Tämä ikuinen talvi. And the songwriting is fine to me. To each their own, I guess, but I seriously don't understand how anyone could possibly want them to go back to the overly clipped sound of their Spikefarm albums.

EQ probably alters the waveform to introduce artificial peaks and troughs that aren't there on the original recording, thus smoothing out the effects of clipping somewhat. I rarely use EQ, so maybe that's why clipping bothers me so much more than it bothers others; I hadn't really thought about that before. I usually want to hear the original recording's frequency balance; I just can't stand the lack of peaks and troughs in so much '00s music. Of course, declipping alters that somewhat too, but not as noticeably to my ears as EQ does, and it adds more punch to the drums to my ears. Clipped drums almost always sound muffled and flat to me. In any case, neither of us were really satisfied with the original recording to listen to it without alteration, in my estimation.

Moonsorrow was one of the best live shows I've ever seen, and of all places in Minnesota. Hope to see them again someday.

Man, Verisäkeet has proven to be the most emotional Moonsorrow album to date for me. Haunting melodies throughout.. Very melancholic

production-wise the most similar to Kivenkantaja I would say is Varjoina... but Kiven is a bit ¨cleaner¨ if that makes sense hehe

There isn't one, really; each of their albums has a unique atmosphere. If you're looking for something with a similar level of folk influence, you'll probably want to try Voimasta ja kunniasta next and work backward; if, on the other hand, you like the progressive rock influence, you'll want to go to Verisäkeet and work forward. In either case, you'll want to listen to their whole discography, because there isn't a weak release anywhere to be found.

Haven't checked all albums/songs but very many Moonsorrow lyrics including Jumalten aika have already been translated to English in Darklyrics: http://www.darklyrics.com/m/moonsorrow.html

If a person's measure of music's quality is by sheer number of minutes listened alone then Jumalten Aika would easily be the best album I've heard in my life. Never until now have I finished every single track still intensely excited to hear it come around again on the next repeat: over 100 times and counting at the time of this writing 8 weeks past its release. Do numbers speak louder than words?

FYI: If a native Finnish speaker could improve the translation of the tracks in the wikis for Demos & Rarities (http://www.last.fm/music/Moonsorrow/Demos+&+Rarities/+wiki) and Heritage (http://www.last.fm/music/Moonsorrow/Heritage:+1995-2008+-+The+Collected+Works/+wiki), I would greatly appreciate it. My knowledge of Finnish could be described as very poor at the best. (Specifically, the songs on sides Ä and Ö are my rather slapdash attempts at translating a language I don't really speak. I'm particularly certain that my reading of Ä1 is wrong, and am not entirely sure that I've gotten the grammar of Ö5 right either.) Thanks in advance.

So many other great bands dive in their quality these days, but Moonsorrow don't. I could agree Suden Tunti being a little downfall, but actually it has so many epic details that it suits quite well to album. I like the choir parts so much in all songs. Gotta include Verisäkeet to my social evenings as well because it's close to summer.
