^perfect description for that album, Batty
67. Ensiferum - Ensiferum - (2001)

Ensiferum takes you on an brave journey across torrid seas and to faraway wondrous lands. This album is a hell of a lot of fun and an escape from unmagical, boring day-to-day life. The band's perfectly balanced mix of folk metal, melodic death metal and power metal will take you to a place where anything is possible and the power of music can accomplish anything. From Markus Toivonen's infectious folk melodies to Jari Mäenpää's soaring cleans and spirited growls,
Ensiferum is a jolt of pure folk metal energy. This album, my friends, is what I like to call EPIC.
