As previously reported, the release of Ensiferum's new album, Victory Songs, has been pushed to April. The have issued the following statement:

"Dear fans!

Due to contractual obligations, promotional deadlines and manufacturing delays, we have been forced to move the release of Victory Songs to the 20th of April 2007!

This is very unfortunate, and we're very sorry about the delay, but there's not much that we or our record companies can do to make this album hit the stores any earlier. If we could, we certainly would because we know that all of you are eager to get a listen to the new songs!

Despite this time-taking trouble, it's going to be one killer of an album and we hope that you will have the patience to wait just a little longer!"

Wishing you all the best,

Ensiferum

The tracklist of Victory Songs is as follows: 'Blood Is The Prince Of Glory', 'Deathbringer From The Sky', 'Ahti', 'One More Magic Potion', 'Wanderer', 'Raised By The Sword', 'The New Dawn', 'Victory Song'.
