Meiju Enho hat seinen Job als Keyboarder bei ENSIFERUM an den Nagel gehängt. Seine Gründe führt er in einem Statement an:

"Dear friends,

I´ve now reached the moment in my life when I need to stay out of the battle. It?s time for somebody else to take my place in Ensiferum. These almost 6 years have been totally unforgettable but also rough. After giving my absolutely 100% to this music, playing and shows I now feel exhausted but happy; it has been worth it. Nevertheless, I feel now it?s time for me to head out for new adventures.

Carry on holding the sword! I feel deep gratitude to all fans and friends who have encouraged me during these years. I want to thank Markus, Sami, Janne and Pete for all those once-in-a-lifetime moments and the inspirational atmosphere there has always been. You´re like brothers to me.

I wish good luck to my follower and true warrior spirit to all our listeners.

As long as there´s good beer left in the world, you can never really give up.

- Meiju Enho"

Emmi Silvennoinen (EXSECRATUS) wurde derweil als Ersatzmann verpflichtet.
