12 Years following Wintersun’s “Time I”, Finnish heavy metal quartet led by Jari Mäenpää announce their new studio album “Time II”. “Time II” will be released on August 30th, 2024, via Nuclear Blast Records.
Jari Mäenpää comments: “‘Time II’ is an epic journey from light to darkness and back to light, exploring the universe and energy, contrasting dark stormy landscapes to calm and beautiful cherry blossom tree gardens with misty, snowy mountains that will leave you breathless. It has songs with furious speed of drums, guitars, and bass and beautiful melodic slower songs with a magical exotic influence. It has massive orchestrations and choirs spiced with ancient world instruments and glimmering synths. It has Jari’s soaring, clean singing contrasted with his aggressive style. It is a highly detailed and complex album where you will find new things with every listen”.
