Finntroll – ‘Nifelvind’ (2010)
Rating: 8/10
19 February 2010
Label: Century Media Records
Finntroll’s album Nifelvind is released. And of course we became very curious. For years Finntroll is one of the flagships of folk-metal. But you must admit, the band also leans on years on old glory. Would they be able to prove with this album they are still sitting on the royal throne.
The answer is yes. Perhaps somewhat less than the teaser hinted, but still a strong album. The band is back, with both old sound, but an improved concept as well. Almost all songs are of high quality. An album with which Finntroll again returns to the top without having to live off old fame. Whether, however, this will be the best folk metal album of 2010?
