“Yes, you guessed it! This album is our version of Vivaldi’s ‘The Four Seasons‘, but it hasn’t got anything to do with Vivaldi musically or with classical music,” Wintersun commented. “It is 100% original and solid Wintersun material! It is something new and different. Let’s just say it has a bit more darker tone overall… Next week you will know how we are releasing our new album, so stay tuned for more details!“
