AMORPHIS Streams "Drowned Maid" From Tales From The Thousand Lakes Live Album
Tales From The Thousand Lakes (Live At Tavastia) is out this June.
#Amorphis, #DarkTranquillity, and #FiresInTheDistance are going on a North America tour! I've never bought a ticket for a show so fast. 2 legendary #melodeath bands (formed in 1990 and 1989, respectively) and another that is relatively new to the scene, but who has already had a huge impact. "Air Not Meant for Us" from Fires was probably my favorite, most played release of 2023. This will be epic.

I really enjoyed you so far, but nope, not Skyforger. Some songs are so over the top cheesy (looking at you Highest Star), it almost hurts. Title track is a banger though.
So before I continued my #Metaljourney with #Amorphis' next album "Circle", I had to go back and listen to a song from Eclipse to remind myself that they were f*cking great back then.
Now onto #Circle
As per tradition they start very good, I dearly hope they keep this energy throughout the entire album this time.
Thank you #Amorphis for these songs! This sounds so much better than your previous albums and I had to add 2 songs to my "Best of Amorphis" playlist already 🤘
Funnily enough, laut.de verdicts that "At times, the Finns are knee-deep in kitsch." Yeah, kitsch is still there, but it's much less compared to the previous 2-3 albums. However, I am only midway through this one, so that might change still.
With "Under The Red Cloud" #Amorphis seem to abandon the (sorry) generic Death Metal path once and for all and turn back to their progressive folky death sound from the 90s and early 2000s.
Man, this #Amorphis#Metaljourney is one hell of a ride with ups and downs. Luckily, more ups, and this album is no exception.
I love this brutal melodic folk death stuff they pull off here 🤘
Out of all #Amorphis albums, this might be the most surprising one. They took all their signature elements and added a big orchestra on top. It almost sounds like a soundtrack or a concept album.
This was a really interesting #Metaljourney. #Amorphis changed their style a lot, however throughout their career they kept their signature elements and were always recognisable.
