Our review of Wintersun's holdover album between Time I and Time II, dubbed The Forest Seasons, wasn't all that favorable. Though that's also anything any fans had to go off of between the announcement of The Forest Seasons' frankly ridiculous crowdfunding campaign, since there were no singles released off the album up until its release today.
Now you can hear the 14-minute long song "Awaken From The Dark Slumber (Spring)," which is neither great nor terrible. It just feels like The Forest Seasons has put out to prop up the funding campaign, and now that you'v heard 25% of the album, you can figure out how you feel about it too.
