ENSIFERUM – To Shoot New Music Video At Philadelphia Show On May 28th

ENSIFERUM’s tour with Korpiklaani and Trollfest will draw to a close on May 29th in New York City, but the night before, the band will invite director Dave Brodsky to shoot a brand new music video. Fans in attendance on May 28 in Philadelphia at the Theatre Of Living Arts will bear witness to a live video shoot for “Warrior Without A War.” The video will serve as a perfect wrap up of the band’s current tour, which featured guest accordion player Netta Skog, who filled in for keyboardist Emmi Silvennoinen, as previously discussed by the band in the Facebook video HERE. Sami Hinkka adds: “Get yourself to Philadelphia on the 28th of May, put your war paint on, warm up your vocal chords, and get ready to go berserk!” Fans that want to be a part of this occasion can buy tickets now at livenation.com HERE.

The record debuted at #167 on Billboard’s Top 200 Current Albums Chart, #19 on Billboard’s Hard Music Chart, #36 on Billboard’s Independent Albums Chart and #9 on Billboard’s Heekseekers Chart upon its first week of release.

ENSIFERUM has been flying the flag of epic, folk-infused death metal high and proud for two decades. Commended for being, “their most polished album to date,” by Metal Hammer, “one of folk metal’s finest acts…,” by Loudwire and, “warlike and fiery,” by MetalSucks, the band’s predominantly analog-recorded, eleven-track One Man Army full-length was captured by award-winning producer Anssi Kippo (Children Of Bodom, Impaled Nazarene, Entwine etc.) at Astia-Studios in Lappeenranta, Finland.

“One Man Army blasts forth with symphonic guitar orchestrations, double-time drum gallops, quick-changing dynamics and operatic vocal chorales that would make 19th century homeboys Pacius and Sibelius proud.” – Revolver

“An incredible album, and worthy for the thunder children. Indeed it is a thunderous epic, and should stand alone as a fantastic addition to Metal Blade’s legendary collection.” – New Noise Magazine

“One Man Army is ENSIFERUM at their finest. The three years between releases worked to the band’s benefit as their execution and adventurous songwriting finds them with a renewed passion and energy.” – About.com

“…a solid LP forged in the crucible of war.” – Sputnik Music
