ENSIFERUM To Launch New Online Shop This Month, Keyboardist To Take A Break From Touring

ENSIFERUM have issued the following update:

The Ensiferum merchandise shop renews! For this reason NO NEW ORDERS WILL BE TAKEN UNTIL THE NEW SHOP OPENS. The new shop will begin accepting their orders by THE END OF JANUARY and can be found at this location (or by clicking the merchandise section on the Ensiferum website). The renovation opens up new features and improvements, like increased paying methods with credit cards and others. There will also be new merchandise added in the shop soon after the renovation of the new shop.

For the last years Meiju Enho has been constantly balancing between the band, school and work and now we are granting her a little breather, so she can complete her schooling. That means that Ensiferum will be playing the next concerts with Emmi Silvennoinen, the synth player from the band EXSECRATUS."

As previously reported, Ensiferum has complete work on their new studio album, Victory Songs.
The complete tracklist is as follows:
'Ad Victoriam',
'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'.

The limited edition version of the CD includes a bonus track, 'Lady In Black', and a bonus-DVD. The first single from the album will be 'One More Magic Potion' and will feature 'Lady In Black' as a B-side.
