Ha ha indeed you have. Yes I agree Iron is a great album too, into battle is one of the greatest tracks I have ever heard. I do like Wintersun but I often wonder what Jaari makes of Ensiferum's continued success. I listen to some of the tracks from Iron and Jaari must think, man that's so good, I wish I was a part of it. I love Ensiferum's film clips also.
I also like Svartsot from Denmark, FinnTroll from Finland, Korpiklaani from Finland and Wolfchant, so yes, you have found a Viking metal brother
Oh yes, Falkenbach from Germany are also a wonderfully monotonous band.
I do listen to many different genres of music though...

John,
Haha, another Ensiferum fan! I've posted some earlier in this thread. I agree, the self-titled album is the best. Although, I did like a couple off Iron.
Are you into Wintersun? Jaari Maenpaa's side project from Ensiferum (well, after he left Ensiferum, he's concentrated more on Wintersun). Their second album has been in the making for 7 years so far. And, they've just announced that they're going to split it into two albums. Some of the songs have up to 200 tracks each. I can't wait to hear it.
Here's Kai Hahto (Wintersun drummer) proving once again how much of a human metronome machine he is, on one of the new Wintersun tracks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zpELF5in-cU
Have I found a viking/black metal brother in you?
