Who really cares about Ensiferum at this point? Petri should rejoin Norther because he doesn't fir with Ensiferum. Norther is going to die without Lindroos.

ensiferum was better with Jari but Petri does a great job. Ensiferum is better for Petri in my opinion. although i do love Norther. They could have chosen a better vocalist for Norther. not saying hes a bad vocalist he just doesnt fit Northers style.
