SUDEN UNI

A quick listen of this, [what I thought to be] the debut album by Finnish Pagan-Folk Metal band Moonsorrow: Suden Uni. My first thought is this: What on earth is this cover they have for it on Spotify? An upright anthropomorphized wolf-man?! Ok then. [After listening, it fits hahaha!!!!] My first taste of the band is [actually was, thanks to yours truly haha] their highest rated here: Kivenkantaja (2003).

"Ukkosenjumalan poika": Pretty cool riffs, seriously. The ending was a winner.

"Köyliönjärven jäällä (Pakanavadet II)": Wow, that's a lot of umlauts. What is this, a polka? When the acoustic guitar comes in around minute 1, very nice, actually. Hard for me, periodically, not to draw parallels to Opeth, but these specific moments are fleeting. Unusual rhythm? Sure. Once. It was decent.

"Kuin ikuinen": A little hokey. The drums were good (at one point haha). I'm over it.

"Tuulen koti, Aaltojen koti": Soft acoustic number? Nay. Pretty big. Not pretty good.

"Pakanajuhla": Alright, boys! Queue up "Sea Shanty 2"! haha. I just can't picture what kind of person listens to this. This is basically the same as Irish music: horrible haha.

"1065: Aika": Starts off low and slow, spacy. Wow... what a riveting 11 minutes... /s ( -__- )

And then the whole affair ends on the title track. Pointless haha.

Bonus track "Tulkaapa äijät!" is just as bad as the rest. Hokey cringe.
