2016, Ensiferum are one of those bands that, while not being prog, play such an epic brand of metal, they appeal to me and many progheads. Consistency has been a strength. Ensiferum are either balls to the wall viking metal or reflective folk metal based on how the battle went. The band released their music on Spinefarm Records up until their last album ONE MAN ARMY which saw them get signed by Metal Blade Records. It's a wonder they weren't signed sooner. Spinefarm put together this comprehensive retrospective that not only covers each album on their label but also tracks from the album released on Metal Blade. TWO DECADES OF GREATEST SWORD HITS is an excellent representation of Ensiferum. It makes a good place for people to go if they are unfamiliar with the band.
