Helsinki, Finland-based melodic folk metallers, Ensiferum, have just announced a full European tour in support of their upcoming new album, due in early 2015.

Comments Sami Hinkka: "Hi folks! The new album is almost recorded and it sounds amazing! Soon we will start mixing it if everything goes well you all can get this masterpiece to your hands in early 2015. After that you have some time to learn all the songs and lyrics and then it's time to put your warpaint on and get ready to shout your lunges out because... We are really happy to announce our album release European tour! We can't wait to play the new songs live!
