I'm seeing them tomorrow in Munich, and I'm really looking forward to it. How's the opening act, Gunnar? The bit I listened to on Spotify felt very different from The Hu, and I have to admit, I wasn't too excited.

Checking out this community and I hear some pretty cool bands here. I only really followed Eluveitie and know quite a bit from them. I'm interested in checking out lots of others. My particular favorite kinds of metal are power, prog, and symphonic.

I’ve given it about 10 listens, and it is fantastic. It has a similar style to their previous album, Храм.
