Finnish folk metal goliaths, Ensiferum, today unveil their official video for “The Howl”. The track is taken from their Winter Storm full-length, out now on Metal Blade Records.

Says the band: "Winter Storm has been out for a few months now, so how about we release a new video? The official music video for 'The Howl' is here, and it’s as wild as the track itself! Watch it now."

Ensiferum's Winter Storm was produced by Janne Joutsenniemi, mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren, and includes guest appearances by Lassi Logrén on Nyckelharpa and violin and Mikko Mustonen on orchestration as well as Eleine's Madeleine Liljestam who provides all vocals on "Scars In My Heart".
