Jari M\u00e4enp\u00e4\u00e4<\/em><\/strong>, formerly of Ensiferum<\/em>, now the creative driving force behind majestic melodic metal band, Wintersun…<\/strong>\u00a0it\u2019s about \u201cTime<\/strong>\u201d somebody stopped making all these terrible time-related puns and finally called you the fuck out.<\/p>\n Eleven years.<\/strong> Eleven long years of setbacks, broken promises, excuses, dead silence, and we have yet to receive exactly what we expected of you. It\u2019s over, you scheister. It\u2019s time you start answering this question<\/em><\/strong>, once for all, to all of your fans who keep asking you over and over…<\/span> Where the fuck are my Wintersun wallpapers? <\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s been over a good long decade, and here I am stretching out my original Wintersun debut album cover JPEG all over my computer screen, like some kind of dumb ass. This is unacceptable.<\/em> Do you know how many years all my friends who are fans of other extreme metal bands have been actively mocking me for this low-resolution travesty I have to use to display my Wintersun fandom on my laptop? While their favorite groups are consistently supplying them with a generous output of quality desktop background images, here I am stuck in the fucking early aughts; using the same exact screenshot.BMP file I had on my old Dell CRT setup.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n It\u2019s time to pay up, and pay up <\/span>seriously.<\/span><\/p>\n No more will I tolerate your excuses; excuses regarding the standard of quality for which Wintersun wallpapers must meet for you <\/span>personally,<\/span><\/i> while turning a deaf ear to what your fans may want or find acceptable.<\/span><\/p>\n Listen, I thought that the Time I<\/strong> wallpaper I got back in late 2012 was a perfectly good desktop background. Sure it might have been just a little bit muddled, just a bit noisy. A little too much going on there for everybody to handle — if only at first — but I thought it was good<\/strong>. Not worth all the years we waited for it, but yes, still good. Most regular people wouldn\u2019t even notice the overlayered, overproduced, totally digital art that was the result of your many compromises with the Time background as a concept. So look, sometimes done is better than perfect, alright?<\/span><\/p>\n
