Every now and then there comes a moment when all the clouds of doubt and disbelief disperse, and the truth shines down clear from the crystalline firmament: This album is a stellar, flawless piece of art, an imperceptible testament to the ultimate beauty of human creativity. How I wish that Jari would still be able to share with us the visions that only he can fully perceive!

Exactly. Emphasis on "share with us". It seems he has a lot of stuff ready, or close to it, as it is, but some perfectionalistic utopia is keeping him from releasing it. Maybe some minor sound is not right, or technology doesn't yet make it possible for him to "correctly express himself", or along those lines. He should face the dilemma that a product is NEVER "ready", there's always some minor detail to work with. Nevertheless, you should sometimes release the 99 % ready product, even if there is some minor detail not yet fully realized (not that any of us listeners would even spot it or anything).

The main Wintersun shoutbox is strictly for people who adore Time I and think Jari is omnipotent these days... so as I listen to the S/T and feel compelled to say "HOLY CRAP the majesty that is the debut shatters Time I into its 50 jillion component midi layers!" I'll say it here instead... :)

The worst part of this album is each time I listen to it, I keep thinking "yeah this is the best song on here" as each track changes. This leads me to believe that this album gets better and better with every listen, and there isn't a musically weak point on it!

I'll not judge Time I until Time II is released, but at the moment "Time I" is definitely weaker than debut album

For very diatonic metal which draws on a simple formula (compositionally, the melodic vocabulary is very basic), wintersun is the absolute best this music can get. Very rare to hear a sort of fiddly neo-classical sound that actually feels emotionally compelling and not just circus like and cold. Jari managed to tap just alittle deeper with Wintersun. I love forgetting about it for 6 months and returning to it. Time is going to be such an amazing event.

Sadness and Hate is the best on the album. Am I the only one who finds this similar to http://www.last.fm/music/Dissection/Storm+of+the+Light's+Bane (athmosphere, artwork, lyrics).
