Ensiferum Ensiferum

Rating: 7.3/10 Release: December 2020 Label: Earth and Sky Productions Compilation albums can be fairly tricky, while in many cases they can contain hidden gems and unheard content from one’s favorite bands, they can frequently be a shameless cash-grab without the decency of giving the fans or occasionally even the … Continue reading →
