\"Amorphis<\/a><\/p>\n

After more than 25 years of extolling\u00a0finnish myths musically, Amorphis<\/strong> once again read through the Kalevala to find new topics which could be turned into music. It’s already the 12th time that Amorphis<\/strong>\u00a0are\u00a0hitting the studio, and on 4th September the new album Under The Red Cloud\u00a0<\/em>will be released.<\/p>\n

It’s not only the 12th time Amorphis are\u00a0creating a new record, it is also the 12th time Amorphis\u00a0are defining themselves anew. 12 albums, and none of them sounded like the others. While\u00a0Circle\u00a0<\/em>(2013) was very dark and mainly brutal melodic death metal with folk influences,\u00a0Under The Red Cloud\u00a0<\/em>is softer, with more flutes and instruments which add a special Finland feeling, but nevertheless they still draw on well-tried elements.<\/p>\n

With such elements,\u00a0the first track “Under The Red Cloud” introduces the same-titled album. Amorphis<\/strong> often use a piano as the leading instrument, as for example in the title track. The piano starts playing a melody and slowly, the guitar, followed by the other instruments, repeats the melody and finally, the whole band plays it. “Under The Red Cloud” is sung using clean vocals only, while the second track (and one of my personal favourites, if not THE favourite) “The Four Wise Ones” contrasts enormously with amazing growling and a dynamic melody. The song also contains short, but calm folk elements, which results in an aggressive song which doesn’t really seem to be aggressive.<\/p>\n

Amorphis<\/strong>\u00a0aren’t among the\u00a0bands who produce the same album over and over again, the music as well as\u00a0the members’ musical talent refines. Especially Tomi Joutsen, who is one of my favourite singers in metal\u00a0(insert fangirling) got even better with this album. I was stunned how much\u00a0his guttural vocals improved, even after so many years of singing like that. Also, he is extremely variable in his singing. Tomi could sing you to sleep and one moment later, he is able to growl you\u00a0awake. And every single one of Amorphis<\/strong>‘ songs need this kind of variety.<\/p>\n

The only reason why I don’t rate Under The Red Cloud<\/em> with ten devils is my opinion about\u00a0Circle<\/em> being an even better album. I loved the brutality and directness of it and I miss this on Under The Red Cloud<\/em>. But nonetheless, Amorphis’ new masterpiece is a potential album of the year.<\/p>\n
